While we are out of the office the Advising Office will only be open from 10am – 3pm Wednesday – Friday. This week only, please do not panic. We will be back and things will return to normal on Monday; Columbus day – the day we celebrate a man who couldn’t ask for directions!
So while we are gone I need someone to step up and help with Patrick and Gary, my betta fish and snail. (FYI, Patrick's full name is Patrick Gilligan Czamanske) I am going to put them on the bookshelf in the Advising Lounge with their food, a feeding sheet. Whoever is kind enough to take charge and feed Patrick needs to please sign the feeding sheet, indicating to others that Patrick is set for the day.

Over the past weekend I was at my brother-in-laws (Marty) memorial service. It was a lovely time. During the service my nephew, Duncan, spoke about his father. He mentioned that when he was younger he would sneak into his dad’s dresser and take his white tee-shirts. Getting tired of this, Marty took Duncan to the Gap and bought him his own shirts. Still Duncan took his dad’s because ‘mine were Gap and his were Brooks Brothers.’ This continued and even evolved into Duncan taking his dad’s socks. One day he discovered a photo of underprivileged children in his dad’s sock drawer. He didn’t want to confess that he was taking socks, but he had to ask about the photo. Marty told him that he heard of this soccer team that would not be able to play in the league if they did not get a sponsor, so he sponsored them. This was a surprise to Duncan and he asked why he didn’t tell anyone. Marty responded, “you don’t help others for the recognition.”
