This in the EMU Echo (though I found it via annarbor.com): “Eastern prohibits medical marijuana.” Here’s a quote: According to Greg O’Dell, the police chief at EMU, marijuana is prohibited on campus for any reason, including medicinal uses. Associate Director of University Housing Brian Fitzgerald said though there were meetings in place discussing the [...] I guess you’d call this a billboard; it’s hanging on the Student Center right now. Anyway, my four thoughts (please add your own in the comments): I would really prefer if our students did not cheer their brains out as they might need them for classes. As an overweight white guy myself, the [...] Just how hot is it? Well, I just received this email via Walter Kraft and from the Provost: The National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory that remains in effect through 11 p.m. tonight. Faculty and staff working in buildings on campus that are not air conditioned (Hoyt and King, for example) should [...] I don’t remember this story, but apparently, the report of an armed robbery in the parking structure in April was false. From AnnArbor.com, “Ypsilanti teenager charged with falsely claiming he was robbed in EMU parking structure.” I’m back in town and (very VERY slowly) getting back into the swing of things, and I stumbled across this Echo story, “Free food, sun draw crowd to campus picnic.” The EMU home page is rotating some images in the masthead, but no pictures with this article.

I began writing this post in what is likely to be my “office” for the next two years: the EMU Student Center. We will see what the arrangements are like in my real temporary office space in Hoyt, but as many of the characters in the Star Wars series were fond of saying, “I have a bad feeling about this.” Continue reading Pray-Harrold construction: The exile is about to begin I saw this on campus the other day, in one of the big trees on the sidewalk on the way to Pray-Harrold and right behind Porter. I am assuming that this is some kind of “art” project, but does anyone know for sure? While I was taking this picture, I heard a couple [...] One of my Facebook “friends” (actually, this person really is a friend) posted this tidbit today: apparently there is a Quidditch match between EMU and Miami of Ohio today at 2 pm someplace on campus (near the soccer fields? I’m not sure). By the way, the EMU team is known as the “Flying Squirrels.” [...] |
