Hi folks,<br>
<br>
Only two weeks til Christmas, AND it's finals week here on campus.
How's that for double the stress factor? This is the week when all the
students will get to find out how much they've learned and the faculty
will get to find out how well they've gotten through to them. I wish
them all the best. (I'm just glad<u> I</u> don't have a test to take.)<br>
<br>
My husband and I had an enjoyable time at the employee Christmas dinner
the other night. I got to meet some new people and see some old
friends that I hadn't seen in a while. As always, the food was very
good. And the "spare no expense" entertainment was enjoyable also. I
realized I must never have heard Paul Enis sing before, (it's usually
just his students that you hear at programs and such), but now I know
why he went into music. He has a really outstanding voice, and did a
fine job of leading us in a variety of Christmas carols. He even
managed to make us amateurs sound pretty good. <br>
<br>
I had heard something that sounded like a very good piece of news for
Eastern at a recent meeting with the architects that are planning the
new building, and in scanning through the latest e-newsletter, I found
out where the credit goes for this achievement. In the meeting it was
stated that after many years of occupying the land on which our college
sits, Eastern had finally acquired ownership of it. In the
e-newsletter, it stated that this was due to the efforts of Vice
President Linda Sadler. That is an accomplishment surely worthy of
getting her name in Coach Wooldridge's upcoming book on the history of
Eastern. And if that book is already finalized, then it sounds like
we've got a good start on book two. Especially after we get the new
building underway. <br>
