I meant to post this a couple days ago, but I guess I forgot; plenty of time to plan ahead though. From Geoffrey “Geoff” Larcom comes this announcement/invitation to be in an ad for the 0-0-0 campaign: Free food, fun and 0-0-0: Faculty, staff, students invited to “Yes, There IS a FREE Lunch,” All-Campus [...] I missed this April Fool’s story over on Ypsinews.com, “MSU to buy EMU in Hostile Takeover Bid.” It’s a surprisingly elaborate article for a joke article, IMO. Be sure to check it out. Incidentally, I have to wonder if Steve Pierce and whoever else is associated with Ypsinews.com didn’t purposefully make a more ridiculous [...] There was a nice write-up in Annarbor.com about some upcoming theatre at EMU, “Eastern Michigan University invites you to check in at ‘Hotel Paradiso.’” I like elaborate 19th century French farces, so maybe I’ll check it out– not this week but next. I saw this information in a couple places, and there’s this article in The Eastern Echo today about the MLK video contest. The contest is “in the spirit of the theme: ‘The Dream: [Insert Self Here].’” Check out the web site and finalist’s videos. The polling is open until January 15. A somewhat self-serving plug: tomorrow is the bi-annual (or is it semi-annual? well, twice a year) Celebration of Student Writing in the EMU Student Center, between 4 and 5:30 pm. It’s a sort of writing “fair/festival” for students in English 121, which is the required first year writing class, and it really is a [...] Yours truly will be busy doing computer stuff and God knows what else at EMU’s part of the National Day on Writing, which will basically run from 9 am to 4 pm, mostly in the EMU Student Center Ballroom. The Eastern Echo ran this nice story about the event, and our gallery of writing [...] A loyal EMUTalk.org reader and art professor Ryan Molloy sent me the following information about the “Project One” exhibit that begins with a reception on July 16 from noon to 2 pm. Alas, I continue to be out of town at an undisclosed location; this might be a nice get-away from the more (in)famous art event coming to the area this weekend. Check below to read more about it. The new crime mapping tool being sponsored by/run by EMU and the EMU’s Institute for Geospatial Research (who news we had such a thing?) is pretty cool and has been getting a lot of press in the local and regional media. Here’s a link to the EMU press release, and here’s a link to [...] From the AANews: “EMU brings audience ‘Into the Woods.’” If a production of James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim’s fairy tale mash-up musical “Into the Woods” isn’t enough, by itself, to bring you to Eastern Michigan University, would a robotic cow seal the deal? “We have a (student) robotics team here, and they have [...] I hope you got my note. I was the guy pulling into a spot in the EMU Student Center parking lot this afternoon, fair and square, when you cut me off by going the wrong way and took it. My jaw appropriately dropped onto the steering wheel, I pulled up next to you, rolled [...] |
