If you want to know way more than you might prefer about UVA’s president, I jumped in the deep end awhile back

As a public service, I am reading Scott Beardsley’s book on higher education.

Just as Beardsley sacrificed a lucrative career at McKinsey to take a $700k a year job as Dean of Darden on his way to the very sketchy appointment as UVA president, I paid $12 for the kindle edition of “Higher Calling.”

🛰️ #Austen #MTGI-1 : spirale nuageuse au large, avec intrusion d’air sec en son cœur. Son front, long ruban blanc, balaie l’Atlantique jusqu’à la France. À l’arrière, des cumulus en cellules ouvertes trahissent l’air froid. #tempête

Hey Erin, I was digging through Seth Bodnar’s donor list and am genuinely curious if this is you, and if so, why you chose to support his campaign?

Have you had a chance to read this article? Rebecca and I have also discussed lots of specific reasons it's a bad idea. We're preparing to write the SB and will share what we end up sending.

Les données de MTGI-1 (et bientôt MTGI-2) porte(nt) aussi bien l'information des nuages que de l'état de sécheresse. Celle de TF1 paraît être en état de sécheresse depuis toujours. Quant à France 2 ils ne la diffusent parfois même plus. Quel manque de modernité je trouve et surtout quel gâchis !
