Some incredible accomplishments

The wonderful thing about our university is the fact that there is so much progress, success and accomplishment. Kudos to our University Information Technology Team (UITS) and CIO Abraham George for their exceptional leadership in tough budget times. We are making great progress with Strategic Goal #5, referencing best-of-class technology platform. Recently, our UITS colleague Bob Dively was quoted in a University Business article about the development of our Google Mobile Apps. This articles now one of the "top 5 must reads in the higher ed blogosphere ..." http://universitybusiness.com/viewarticle.aspx?articleid=1515 Over the weekend I watched our baseball team sweep St. Leo in a double header, our men's and women's tennis teams beat Tuskeegee, and read about our Rifle Team win the Regional Sectional at The Citadel, in their first season of competition. Sunday afternoon I watched the 12 students in Professor Earle Coleman's studio (Professor Coleman is the William and Isabelle Curry Eminent Scholar Chair in Voice in the Schwob School of Music) perform their Studio Recital. From Brahms to Berstein, Franz Schubert to Richard Rogers the students were magnnificent. Truth be known, this is all reflective of a great, engaged university.
