Provost Emeritus |
| 14:57 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Don't worry, Miss Gronk. No actual change in status. |
| 14:59 |
Gronk Seriman |
It's just that I don't remember there ever being a Provost. Just tutors, Professors, Deans and Chancellor. |
| 14:59 |
Phrynne |
Ember! |
| 14:59 |

Ember Elliot (emberell) waves her tail at Phrynne, and the other lovely deans |

Lovejoy had pointed out that a Vice Chancellor is often titled "Provost". |
| 15:00 |
Gronk Seriman |
Ahhhh.... |
| 15:00 |
lovejoy2199 |
We do not, at a G rated sim, a chancellor of 'vice'. |
| 15:00 |
Gronk Seriman |
Ha! |
| 15:00 |
lovejoy2199 |
do not need |
| 15:01 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Having become Chancellor, he noted wistfully, I believe, that he couldn't call me Provost anymore. |

lovejoy2199 |
Besides, if it was good enough foe Condi Rice and Stanford, it should be good enough for here. |
| 15:02 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Greetings fellow deans |
| 15:02 |
Gronk Seriman |
Hello, Andrea! |
| 15:02 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Greetings, Andrea. |

Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Welcome all to this week's Oxbridge Deans' Q&A.. And my thanks to deans Phrynne and Andrea for allowing me to put the apostrophe after the "s" rather than before. |
| 15:05 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
HI doc |
| 15:05 |
Holly (hollydeni) |
hello Doc |
| 15:06 |
Doc (doctorbarnstable) |
Hello Andrea. |

Doc (doctorbarnstable) |
Hi Holly. |

Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Before handing off to Phrynne, I'll simply note that, while today's role tag is simply a nod to lovejoy, it also has greater implications. Carl came in long enough to make me owner of the COU Student Union group. |
| 15:06 |
Doc (doctorbarnstable) |
Hello Phrynne, and Wordsmith. |
| 15:06 |
lovejoy2199 |
Thank you. |
| 15:06 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Hello, Doc |
| 15:07 |
Phrynne |
back |
| 15:08 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Got a report, Phrynne? |
| 15:08 |
Phrynne |
I've been here and in RL (more RL this week still, with house repair matters). No big changes, just helping people in the plaza. |
| 15:09 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Seemed like a mostly quiet week. |
| 15:09 |
Phrynne |
A lot of returnees, a lot of older avatars visiting. |
| 15:09 |
Phrynne |
But no problems |
| 15:10 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Andrea? |
| 15:10 |
Holly (hollydeni) |
ooOOOOOooooOOOOOOO |
| 15:10 |
lovejoy2199 |
Nice |
| 15:10 |
Holly (hollydeni) |
love it |
| 15:11 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Still working on the patron program, should have some movement on that this week |
| 15:11 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
the gazeebo is for the hunt item for slb14 |
| 15:11 |
Holly (hollydeni) |
wow |
| 15:11 |
Gronk Seriman |
Very nice! |
| 15:12 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Rainy called in that she was sick today, we plan on some movement on the sponsor board this week |
| 15:13 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
The bowling fund raiser is set for the 19th at 6 if memeory serves |
| 15:13 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
There may be a tournement of some sort along withthe bowling and dancing |
| 15:13 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
There will be a plaque for those that come, and one for those that doante |
| 15:13 |

Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |

| 15:14 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Been a really busy week, I've tied in with burn 2 to do a build there. |
| 15:14 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
The COU will be mentioned inthe build somewhere |
| 15:15 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
oh sorry, I should have said the 19th of August for the bowling fundraiser. We are waitng till after the RFL season |
| 15:15 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
So plenty of time to refine the fundraiser event |
| 15:15 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
and advertise it |
| 15:16 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Sorry my thoughts were spread out this week |
| 15:16 |
Oxbridge Donation Coin R1 (Alternate Lecture Hall) |
Kara2016 gave a generous donation to help support classes and tutorials at Caledon Oxbridge Gateway. |
| 15:17 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Looks at Wordsmith |
| 15:17 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
ty Kara, appreciated. |
| 15:17 |
Kara2016 |

| 15:18 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I've been mostly focused on the SL14B build along with having two days of RL meetings in L.A. this week. |
| 15:20 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I have all the interactive display boards that I'd planned up and functioning. Now it's writing and combining writing with pictures that Tasha's been sending to me. Oh, and a couple more textures that Rainy sent to me for the "clothesline". |
| 15:23 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
There's been a bit of a kerfluffle over Oxbridge building backups. I've yet to know exactly what Carl has and what will need to be recreated in mesh. The gods seem to be keeping this Provost Emeritus busy. |
| 15:23 |
lovejoy2199 |
lol...lol |
| 15:24 |
Phrynne |
They don't want you getting bored. |
| 15:25 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I did find that I had a "oxford" building texture that Carl had made available and discovered that it had 6075 separate colors in it. |
| 15:26 |
Phrynne |
6075???!!! |
| 15:26 |
Kara2016 |
ouch. |
| 15:26 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
512x512 pixels leaves considerable room for 6075. |
| 15:28 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I've some Python tools for looking at and manipulating image properties. |
| 15:28 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
So, open for questions. |
| 15:28 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
(I haven't forgotten you Holly) |
| 15:30 |
Gronk Seriman |
What is Carl's status? Has he ejected from Oxbridge, or might he orbit back as a friendly force? |
| 15:32 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
As far as he's said, he has much to contend with in RL at this time. If or when he gets past trying times, he's certainly welcome back as a friendly force. When or whether that occurs, we simply don't know. |
| 15:32 |
Gronk Seriman |
I understand. |
| 15:33 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Unlike when he disengaged from NCI, this wasn't an internal disagreement or split. |
| 15:34 |
Gronk Seriman |
RL does trump SL in all cases. |
| 15:35 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Other questions? |
| 15:37 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Looks like we can adjourn (bangs metaphorical gavel on metaphorical table). |
| 15:37 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Thanks you all for coming. |
| 15:37 |
Phrynne |
Thank you |
| 15:37 |
Holly (hollydeni) |
clapping for the Deans |
| 15:37 |
Ember Elliot (emberell) |
Thank you for coming, and for keeping us informed as always. Your hard work is appreciated |
| 15:38 |
Gronk Seriman |
Thank you. Deans! |
| 15:38 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
oh, I should mention that the implication of my nametag is that the Student Union group gives us tags for other uses. |
| 15:38 |
Doc (doctorbarnstable) |
Thank you Phryyne, Andrea, Wordsmith. |
| 15:39 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
tc all. |
| 15:39 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
There will be a tagg for Patrons again |
| 15:39 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |

| 15:40 |
Gronk Seriman |
Andrea WILL HAVE the fanciest chair here! |
