The Gift of One Hour
This coming Sunday we will “fall back” and turn the clocks back one hour. Which is sort of like getting a free hour, or a chance to re-do an hour all over again. How will you spend that time? How will your Deacs? Will they […]
Expanded hours for onCall shuttle service
Quick post today – still advising my students. An announcement went out today that we are expanding the hours of the onCall on-demand shuttle service. As we approach turning the clocks back and it gets darker earlier in the evening, this will hopefully be a […]
