Four quick weeks. It's especially exciting for me, here in Wisconsin, because February generally marks the eclipsing of our the winter season. But February had (at least) one more laughing, pointing, Hah Hah Hah! moment this weekend when I woke up Saturday morning to find everything covered in snow....

(Sorry mom!) I know that Saturday was the most beautiful day we've seen up here in Wisconsin since early November. No kidding. Could this be a slowly approaching sign that things are about to change? "Things" meaning "the...

And for the gap between this post and the last, I apologize. However, there's no time to sit back and worry about lost time. Today's a special day in the history of this nation with regards to the inauguration of Barack Obama. Lakeland is going to be broadcasting the entire ceremony in our auditorium on the large screen. I plan on stopping by to catch part of the ceremony, as well...

I've resorted to wearing thermal underwear, i.e. long-johns, longies, thermals, etc, underneath my khakis. Yes, it is cold once again. And I say this being fully aware of the potential to further stereotype the location of Lakeland College as being in a remote, Borean-Tundra type of environment. This is not the case. In fact, election...

Exciting times ahead! And for some of you who are privileged enough to have earned the right to vote this year, Tuesday is your day. There are many different programs being held on campus to raise voter awareness not only about the each of the candidates' issues, but also on the importance of voting as well. 125,736,000 people voted in the 2004 election. 142,070,000...

This blog was supposed to be about some exciting news: new student bloggers. However, this afternoon as I was in the midst of chatting with Tarra, one of said bloggers, a horrible smell began to rise from the baseboard vents in my office. Then I remembered: Terminex was outside the building walls taking care of a couple of yellow-jacket nests. Whatever they use... Tue, 09 Sep 2008 14:55:06 CST http://www.lakeland.edu/admissions/counselors_blog.asp?view=681&blogid=50 http://www.lakeland.edu/admissions/counselors_blog.asp?view=678&blogid=50 It's been quite the summer, four months of quiet on my end. As I told some of our on-campus students who returned to class this past Tuesday, I blinked back in June and found myself in August. Unbelievable. So, for those in suspense, I will be returning for my third year as Associate Director of Admissions here at Lakeland College. That said, I'm going to give all you 18 and under folks...

I love spring. The dirt in the bean field across the street from my office has been churned, and the mud itself has taken on that reddish-brown hue that signals a new season's planting. Here at Lakeland, we recently held graduation. An exciting time of endings on one hand, and new beginnings on the other. I'm in the process of tying up loose ends for the incoming freshman, as...

FYI, Rockford College has a great wireless internet connection, because I'm seated in my car in parking Lot A and having no trouble whatsoever securing a decent enough connection to post this up. Two and a half hours from now, I will have finished this week's stint of college fairs. This morning, as well as yesterday morning, I participated in the National Hispanic...
