Hard to believe, but our Summer Session here at work is over today. The kids (oy, I can't be that old, can I - that 20-somethings should be 'kids' to me?) got their certificates. (Still blows my mind - "Ooo, can I get a certificate?" or "Oh! We get certificates?" - I print these things off as a Word document from my computer!)
We also handed out the 4 scholarship prizes (as in, best overall student - 2 for language, 2 for 'cultural' studies and in each category was 1 undergrad and 1 grad) and baseball hats (with our department logo).
The hats were supposed to be for sale, but our new faculty director decided, since no students were buying them (15 bucks for a really cool LLBean-worthy style baseball hat - in stone with crimson embroidery!), that we'd give them out at the ceremony today.
Now I've got to go and clean up the punch bowl and cookie platter (poor custodian is going to have enough on his plate tonight - we had to move our big-*** conference table out of the way - ok, I had to move it, and that thing is built like the Titanic - except for the gash from the iceberg part).
If all goes well, I'll have at least some Internet this weekend - once I get my OS 10.3 (Panther!) installed.
Catch ya round!
Kate :-)
