More ways to check in and speak up

Many thanks to everyone who's written in to say what they're up to these days! It is just as great to get a short note as is it to get the longer write-ups, such as those that Rob Scichili '90, the Rev. Bev Hamilton '84, Mariano Castillo '02, Julie Myers '91, Dave Thomas '93, Doug Pils '92, Rich Tijerina '91 and Paul McGrath '78 have been kind enough to send. The extra benefit of the long form is that students tell me they like to read these tales and find them inspirational. I am grateful to all of you who've written!

And if you just want to say howdy in an even shorter format, I started a thread over there in the Aggie Journalists forum titled "Roll call." Stand up and saaa-lute! (Yes, I just committed a "Hee Haw" reference.) There's also a roll call on our Facebook group.

I also started a couple other topics I'm interested to see if people have any thoughts on: Swanky side of Bryan-College Station and Anti-Aggie bias at work?

As the second topic might indicate, you can post anonymously -- the forum doesn't require registration, so you can pretty much just click and start writing. Or you can register and pick a username, too, if you wish.
