Lyman Auditorium

About 2 weeks before my last official day of work, I dragged Emma and Ethan with me to campus to pick something up and we did an impromptu tour of the campus. Really like how this photo came out.

Good funding news for my university (I work with the nursing program):
"Through the grant, Southern was awarded $1.4 million for its accelerated nursing program and $1.6 million for its social work program. The funds will be used toward tuition assistance for Connecticut-based students and faculty recruitment and retention, allowing Southern to send more graduates into the healthcare workforce, including an increased number of students of color."

New SCSU Authors interface!

We are really excited to announce the new website for the SCSU Authors database. This website was designed by 3 Computer Science students, Kyle Cody, Andrew Chan, & Aaron Harrison, for their Capstone Project (under the direction of Prof. MD Hossain in Computer Science.) They started from the open source Kerko project and produced a customized & tailored site that looks great!

"We venture to ask Miss Chase if she can find a solution for sandstorms in the library, especially during basketball games overhead." (Laurel Leaf, vol XI, no 4, p 2. January, 1937)

The Laurel Leaf was the student newsletter, published by "The Students of the Teachers College of Connecticut - New Haven Unit" in the 1930s.

Apparently, the gym was above the library and the ceiling was somewhat...porous.
