Chairman Harper: Faculty Club is a beacon of light in the darkness

Dear Colleagues,

Daylight Saving Time is upon us, and as the afternoons get darker the Faculty Club remains a beacon of light and cheer.

On Wednesday this week we are reserving the corner table for the Biology Faculty.  Bruce Bowerman (Chair) will be giving the Six-o-Clock toast.  Rumor has it that the bartenders are putting Thomas Dolby on the playlist and getting out the petri dishes to experiment with creating a bio-themed signature cocktail.

Thursday evening President Michael Schill has had to cancel (he’ll join us instead in a few weeks), so there’s an opening for a presidential impersonator to deliver the Six-o-Clock toast.  Auditions will be conducted in the cloakroom at 5:55.

Hope to see you, and any guests you’d like to bring, one or both nights!

Yours, James Harper
Chair of the Faculty Club Board

I’m no soil scientist, but I believe they call that a landslide.

    I recommend Dr. Michael Schill, Law professor, to be the presidential impersonator.

      I’ve found him to be warm, urbane, and personable. Seems like a good match.

      I like Mike, but Alec Baldwin’s got a lock on that.

    Can we expect that Malcolm’s vote total will count towards his performance metrics?

    As long as the performance is in one of the preferred and pre-chosen categories, then it should be good.

    What’s going on with the random disappearance of Tobin Klinger from Communications pages. Just curious…
