I am WAY behind in grading your work. Lest you think I've been sitting around eating bon bons, you should know that the past two days I've been out of the office at all-day mini-conferences, talking about library cataloging, authority control, discovery tools, electronic resources management, and other things that have made my eyes glaze over. I've been logging into D2L during breaks to look for messages from you and respond to emails.
My agenda for tomorrow: get up, get my kids off to school, get to work, GRADE PAPERS until 3, and then I have a 3 hour Academic Council meeting. Academic Council is the committee made up of faculty and administrators that reviews and approves or rejects all new proposed courses and awards. After Academic Council, I have to go to a parent information meeting for a program one of my sons wants to participate in (Environmental Camp; anyone have kids go to that?). After I get home from that meeting, I will eat something then probably collapse in a heap. Do you care? Probably not, but I wanted you to have some idea of what your instructors are up to when they're not getting back to you as fast as you'd like (and as fast as we'd like, sometimes).

This blog is a community place for sharing between myself and my students. If you're a student coming here, sometimes information here will be for your class, sometimes for another. I will tag anything that is for a specific course with the designator INFS or LIBT and the course number (INFS1000, LIBT2200, etc.), so if you want to find posts that are only for your course, then you can use the labels/tags to limit to your course number. Please add your thoughts to the banter.
