Steve Pierce posted a comment about one of the Google Ads that pops up on the site once in a while, so I thought I’d post it here:
One of your google ads had a link for 100% EMU Oil.
So as to not get you in trouble, here it is http://www.onlynaturesfinest.com/searchinfo.aspx?srchtxt=emu%20oil
This is not to be confused [...]
This recent Inside Higher Ed, “Outsourcing, Open Source and Budget Cuts,” is about recent trends in college computing, and it seems to square with some of the issues going on here at EMU right now. You can read it on your own, but the trend has been a shift to outsource email (Google is [...]
Or we can hope, at least. From Pam Young comes this news:
Earlier today (October 30), Judge Archie C. Brown of the 22nd Circuit Court of Washtenaw County granted Eastern Michigan University’s Motion for Summary Disposition and dismissed former EMU President John Fallon’s lawsuit that was filed against the University in 2007. Judge Brown previously [...]
Given some of the recent talk here about the Soulwinners and counter-protests, I thought that folks might find amusing this post on the fantastic blog boing-boing, “God Hates Signs protest waged against Westboro Baptist Church.” This is the oh-so charming group that likes to parade around with signs saying stuff like “God hates fags.” [...]
In this political season, I thought that this letter in the Detroit News might be of interest here. It’s short, so here’s the whole thing:
What I would like The News to explain in its endorsements for the Big Three Michigan public universities (“Our picks for university, state education boards,” Oct. 16) is: Why are [...]
This kind of crosses over into more of the political than I usually go here at EMUTalk.org, but I couldn’t resist:
As I noticed via the Ypsi City Desk this afternoon, for the upcoming presidential campaign, the Ann Arbor News has joined the ranks of the firmly uncommitted. Or, more accurately perhaps, “For [...]
From my news feed just a bit ago, as reported in the AAN, “Ypsilanti firefighters have a busy night:”
It began at 6:42 p.m. when firefighters were called to Dining Commons 3 at Eastern Michigan University when three student workers experienced breathing problems after mixing chemicals in a bucket that caused intense fumes, according to Capt. [...]
From the EMU Athletics program web site, I learned that “Football Falls to Nationally Ranked Ball State, 38-16.” Not surprising, really. But I have to wonder if there aren’t some football boosters at EMU who look at this game with a bit of envy and wishful thinking.
I don’t follow MAC sports too closely, [...]
I saw the email update/announcement about this the other day, but the fact that it turned up on the channel 4 “Click on Detroit” web site is a little concerning: “Police Investigate EMU Armed Robbery.” From the article:
The Eastern Michigan University Police Department is investigating an armed robbery that occurred Wednesday evening outside [...]
We’re about three weeks into Zimbra at EMU, and I have to say that I am on the whole pretty impressed. The conversion (at least on the user end) seems to have gone pretty smoothly, the system seems pretty robust, and it seems to “just work” quite well. I’ve been playing around with [...]
