Last night was the conclusion of the MBA IM basketball tournament; S3 ran the tourney until we ran into the same group of guys that we met in the football championship. That made it less fun, but at least I didn't get dunked on like a couple of other guys. If sports are meant to be fun, there should be some sense of sportsmanship but that crew doesn't have it. Oh well... second place and the high ground are fine by me.
Today is a day that should be easy but isn't. For some reason finals week has gone from the easiest time in a semester to the busiest most frantic few days before break. Everybody is running around trying to get MAP arrangements off the ground, locking in spring break plans and getting ready to be in a much different mode in a week or so.
MTrek continues to be a major time consumer. There are nine websites still out there but lots of work to get ready for registration starting on March 1. We have nearly endless meetings to ensure that everybody is on the same page, budgets are on the up and up, and to track what else we need to do. It's a good product, though, and I'm proud to be pushing this tradition for incoming students.
