I just posted something kind of like this on my own blog, so I thought I’d do the same here, a sort of “greatest hits” of posts from 2009– at least the most popular based on the number of comments and/or posts I liked and/or thought were important: “Faculty council wants info on athletics [...] This may very well be my last post here of the year. The holi-daze is upon us, and sitedad will be traveling to see various relatives, as per the custom. I won’t have a computer for much of my time out of town (though I will have my iPhone, which does allow me to [...] Former Ann Arbor News reporter/columnist and current EMU PR/writer guy Geoff Larcom sent me an email suggesting that I post a link to this Focus EMU article, “Swing space plan for Pray-Harrold, Science Complex in development.” It runs through the basic plans for what to do about space for offices, teaching, etc. for everyone [...] This morning, I skimmed through an article that came out back in February in The Los Angeles Times called “Hi, I’m Jill.

I know, that’s a lot of reading to assign right before finals week, [...] Walter Kraft just sent around the following: Open forums will take place next week for the Chief Information Officer candidates. All forums will take place from 1:15 – 2 p.m. in 205 Welch Hall. The schedule is as follows: Monday Dewitt Latimer, Deputy CIO & Chief Technology Officer, Assistant Provost/Assistant Vice President, University [...] I’m posting this here mainly because smoking has been a topic off and on over the years: I just heard on public radio this morning that a smoking ban finally passed the state legislature and will almost certainly be signed by the governor. There are some exceptions to the law– casinos, home offices, and [...] I’ve kind of stayed away from posting every message that comes my way from DPS about some sort of crime near campus, but the most recent notable crime has taken a sort of odd turn. Just yesterday, DPS said there was an “abduction/armed robbery” at the corner of Ballard and West Cross (by one [...] An alert EMUTalk.org reader sent me an email complementing me on posting about the “hiring/nonhiring” for the EMU government position, but then pointing out that I had missed the fact that EMU has posted an ad for University General Counsel. “Does this mean that Ken McKanders is gone or being forced out?” Well, this [...] |
