The perception/promotion of our work and academic role remains challenging. An electrician attending one of our campus workrooms earlier today asked me on the way out if "the merger affected you at all?" I smiled & gave my standard reply "Oh yes, we delivered five years work in a year and half."

I stopped by the Weston yesterday to see the Clarendon muses- they’ve been on top the building for three hundred years, came down two years ago for restoration, and go back up in September! So if you’re looking for a free exhibit in an air conditioned building, go check it out, they’re really neat
