Sorry about the crazy spam that took over the blog. An unchecked box can cause a world of trouble, apparently.

We had a fabulous Fall Symposium and hope our big crew of Texans made it home alright. We audio taped Carol’s Frequently Asked Questions session and hope to have podcasts up in the new year. Hope everyone has a restful holiday break!

The early bird special to register for Fall Symposium ends next week. Save yourself and your colleagues some money and sign up soon!

Excited about the Summer Institute on Academic Diversity happening in Charlottesville, VA right now!

Need another idea for calling on students? There’s an app for that! The iPhone app “who’s next” is fab!
