14:58 RainyDayRecess :)
14:58 Gronk Seriman Ah! Thank you!
14:59 Wordsmith Jarvinen LL has been fiddling with stuff like that.
15:01 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) Hi Miranda
15:01 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) welcome
15:01 Gronk Seriman Why did the clock only chime once?
15:01 Wordsmith Jarvinen Welcome all to our (mostly) weekly Oxbridge Deans' Q&A. This is an open meeting.
15:02 Wordsmith Jarvinen No idea on that, Gronk.
15:02 Kara2016 Greetings al.

15:04 Badass Fae (larkylouz) Hi everyone
15:04 Agatha Macbeth Yay
15:04 Wordsmith Jarvinen elegance.
15:04 Holly (hollydeni) hello Larkey
15:04 RainyDayRecess So pretty Larky ;)
15:04 Badass Fae (larkylouz) Thank you. I love this dress.
15:05 Wordsmith Jarvinen Phrynne can't make it today (our lead dean of commons), but she noted that she'll be fiddling with the color of grass and planning for fall.
15:05 Agatha Macbeth Aww
15:05 Kara2016 Smiles brightly.
15:06 Wordsmith Jarvinen Elfbiter needed sleep, but noted that the Writers' meeting is still Thursdays at 11am SLT.
15:07 Wordsmith Jarvinen The SL14B exhibit has been up and visited, judging by the hunt gift and other gift notices I've been seeing in my transaction record.
15:07 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) Yay!
15:07 RainyDayRecess Yay
15:08 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) you put in a lot of work on that
15:08 Kara2016 Yay!!
15:08 RainyDayRecess No numbers for turnout though?
15:08 Kara2016 yes, its a good informative build.
15:08 Badass Fae (larkylouz) there were several other folks there when I went through.
15:08 RainyDayRecess You did awesome Word ;D
15:08 Wordsmith Jarvinen They don't allow sensors.
15:09 Kara2016 ??
15:09 RainyDayRecess ;(
15:09 Wordsmith Jarvinen There were rules set for the exhibits. Among them were no monitor scripts.
15:10 Wordsmith Jarvinen So, I can't differentiate between those who came in and out, just for the hunt and those that stayed awhile.
15:11 Wordsmith Jarvinen And thanks to Andrea for the hunt gift and other gifts and to Rainy for what's on the clothesline.
15:11 Agatha Macbeth :)
15:11 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) Hi Phrynne
15:11 Kara2016 Smiles brightly.
15:11 Agatha Macbeth Woot
15:12 RainyDayRecess Hehee, Thank you Andrea
15:12 Wordsmith Jarvinen The exhibits will be up until the 5th.
15:12 lovejoy2199 I thought today was the last day.
15:12 Phrynne waves to everyone
15:12 Phrynne Sorry for lateness
15:12 Wordsmith Jarvinen Phynne appears to have been unable to stay away.
15:12 Holly (hollydeni) hello Phyrnne
15:12 Phrynne I can still see, so far.
15:12 Agatha Macbeth waves back
15:13 Oxbridge Donation Coin R1 (Alternate Lecture Hall) Kara2016 gave a generous donation to help support classes and tutorials at Caledon Oxbridge Gateway.
15:13 Phrynne (my glasses broke and are at the shop)
15:13 Wordsmith Jarvinen It's the last day for performances, lovejoy.
15:13 RainyDayRecess :(
15:13 Wordsmith Jarvinen But exhibits stay up for another week.
15:13 lovejoy2199 Great!!!!
15:14 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) I've not been able to get by there except to look at your build.
15:14 Wordsmith Jarvinen You still have a chance to play cohorts or black-path.
15:14 RainyDayRecess There are some really neat games Word made too, like Cohorts
15:15 Wordsmith Jarvinen Pseudo-games. As much explorations.
15:15 Kara2016 Smiles brightly.
15:16 Wordsmith Jarvinen With me catching up on instructor stipends this morning, our "mint" account stands at about 298k with about a week before I pay Oxbridge tier again. That has us pretty near equal on income and expenditures for the last quarter.
15:17 Wordsmith Jarvinen Andrea?
15:19 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) Nothing really to update. Our Patron levels are staying the same right now month to month. I'll be sending out a questionnaire this week to the existing Patrons asking them about a variety of subjects and getting them caught up on the program. I've been tied up on several projects,
15:20 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) I've put in a build at Burn 2 that includes info on the cou and caledon
15:20 RainyDayRecess Oh, nice!
15:20 Kara2016 smiles brightly.
15:20 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) Ferret Fawcett has a rezz day party this tuesday night. I put in a build for that. NC available on request.
15:21 RainyDayRecess 9 years is a long time
15:21 RainyDayRecess (it's 9 years, right?)
15:22 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) and working on a new club house for a new club. pretty much took alot of my time. Plus a few other projects yet to be announced. Yes 9 years
15:22 Wordsmith Jarvinen Rainy, anything new on sponsors?
15:22 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) I am looking for someone to head up a bowling tournament in conjunction with the COU fundraiser in August.
15:23 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) Looks at Rainy
15:23 RainyDayRecess Ummm, sure ;)
15:23 RainyDayRecess No problem
15:23 RainyDayRecess So I'll get with you later on that?
15:24 RainyDayRecess or now?
15:25 Wordsmith Jarvinen At least one signup at the patron level and Rainy has gone through the process of updating the ad boards.
15:25 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) Yay!
15:25 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) Less work for wordsmith
15:26 RainyDayRecess It was kind of fun too
15:26 Wordsmith Jarvinen Phrynne?
15:27 Phrynne I've been playing with grass colors in Oxbridge, and soon I'll be playing with the flowers again. I'm also making plans for late summer-autumn changes in decoration.
15:27 Phrynne Also, I have a request for those of you who are going to SL14B:
15:29 Phrynne If you see an exhibit for a place that you think Oxbridge should know about -- whether it's to help people, or an entertaining place to go, or somewhere tolearn things -- please get the LM of the place (not the exhibit) and send it to me with whatever info the exhibit gives out. I try to get to everything but every year I don't manage it, and then I forget what I didn't make note of. So this year I'm asking you to help. Again, I don't need the LM of the exhibit in SL14B, but the place that's putting it on.
15:30 Phrynne And then I'll go check it out and add it to relevant notecards.
15:30 Phrynne And thank you very much in advance for this.
15:31 Phrynne That's what I have for today.
15:31 Wordsmith Jarvinen Any input from our tutors?
15:31 Holly (hollydeni) ummmm errrrr
15:31 Gronk Seriman Nothing of any importance.
15:31 Holly (hollydeni) giggles
15:32 Holly (hollydeni) I have a question?
15:32 RainyDayRecess :D
15:32 Wordsmith Jarvinen Okay
15:32 Holly (hollydeni) where are the photos that Tasha took of us?
15:33 Wordsmith Jarvinen Well, some are up at the build, and thus in my inventory.
15:33 Holly (hollydeni) I was wondering because she got my good side
15:34 RainyDayRecess Hahahahaha
15:34 Wordsmith Jarvinen Others are in an offworld directory. I tried to get most of the people ones up.
15:34 Kara2016 Giggles.
15:34 Badass Fae (larkylouz) hides a grin
15:34 Wordsmith Jarvinen You have a bad side?
15:34 RainyDayRecess So they aren't posted anywhere else?
15:34 Holly (hollydeni) I thought I would see them at SL !$'
15:34 Wordsmith Jarvinen Not unless Tasha posted them somewhere else.
15:34 Holly (hollydeni) 14 even
15:35 Wordsmith Jarvinen You should. A number of those are on the display boards.
15:35 Holly (hollydeni) thank you Word
15:36 Wordsmith Jarvinen And I can also check what I have on you. ....
15:36 Holly (hollydeni) giggles
15:36 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) Word has black files on us? O.O
15:36 Wordsmith Jarvinen (not in terms of blackmail)
15:37 Phrynne blackfiles or backfiles?
15:37 Wordsmith Jarvinen Depends on the back.
15:37 Holly (hollydeni) as I said Id hate for it to go to waste since it is after all my good side
15:38 Wordsmith Jarvinen I tried to get a good number of photos up, partly as relief from what I was writing.
15:38 Holly (hollydeni) yes you did a ton of writing
15:38 RainyDayRecess That was a TON of work
15:38 Phrynne And very well cone work.
15:38 Phrynne *done
15:39 RainyDayRecess If it wasn't for Word, we wouldn't be represented there
15:39 Wordsmith Jarvinen Agatha, any updates on advent calendar efforts?
15:40 Agatha Macbeth At present I'm working my round vendors on the various Caledon sims
15:40 Agatha Macbeth Making a list to ask for contributions
15:40 Agatha Macbeth I'll also circulate my own group to see if anyone has anything
15:41 Agatha Macbeth Only 6 months left :p
15:41 RainyDayRecess It'll be here before you know it
15:41 Agatha Macbeth That's the trouble
15:41 RainyDayRecess Are you allowed to ask in other groups too?
15:41 Agatha Macbeth Fortunately RL *should* be slowing down a bit now
15:41 Agatha Macbeth Oh
15:42 Agatha Macbeth Good question
15:42 Agatha Macbeth whispers Am I?
15:42 RainyDayRecess I mean, it's not like you're selling anything, just looking for volunteers, right?
15:42 Agatha Macbeth I hadn't thought of that
15:42 RainyDayRecess Word?
15:42 Agatha Macbeth Yes
15:42 Agatha Macbeth Absolutely
15:42 RainyDayRecess Phrynne?
15:43 RainyDayRecess Is that allowed?
15:43 Agatha Macbeth Anyone? 8D
15:43 Phrynne I didn't ask in other groups -- I didn't think of it.
15:43 Agatha Macbeth But no probs with it?
15:43 Phrynne I did ask people outside Caledon for donations, though.
15:43 RainyDayRecess Like maybe ISC? or is that a no-no?
15:43 Agatha Macbeth ISC?
15:43 Phrynne ISC would be good.
15:43 Wordsmith Jarvinen RFL has somewhat of a special status, at least within Caledon.
15:43 Agatha Macbeth Definition pls?
15:44 RainyDayRecess Independant State of Caledon
15:44 Agatha Macbeth Ah right
15:44 Agatha Macbeth Good thinking
15:44 Phrynne I wouldn't ask in the other steamlands; they have their own seasonal festivities
15:44 Agatha Macbeth OK
15:44 Phrynne Ask specific people, but not non their group chats
15:44 Phrynne *not on
15:44 Agatha Macbeth Got it
15:44 RainyDayRecess So not on ISC?
15:44 Phrynne Yes on ISC
15:45 Wordsmith Jarvinen ISC is fine. Caledon.
15:45 Phrynne It's Caledon; we are part of Caledon
15:45 Agatha Macbeth makes notes
15:45 RainyDayRecess How about COU then?
15:45 Phrynne and many Caledonians have been associated with Oxbridge in the past, even if they aren't here now.
15:46 Kara2016 how could i resist..you all pulled me in the moment I landed..
15:46 Wordsmith Jarvinen I'm not going to get annoyed by anyone asking in COU groups.
15:46 Agatha Macbeth Whew
15:46 Phrynne If you find you can't post to COU, send me the notice and I'll post it for you.
15:46 Agatha Macbeth Thanks :)
15:47 Wordsmith Jarvinen Open for general questions.
15:47 Phrynne There are also the student groups, but there may not be much response from there because so many are just starting
15:48 Wordsmith Jarvinen Questions? Confusions? Befuddlements?
15:49 Holly (hollydeni) Im good...grins
15:49 Wordsmith Jarvinen Then we stand adjourned. That you for your participation and bright smiles.
15:50 Holly (hollydeni) claps and whistles
15:50 Kara2016 Smiles brightly. Your welcome.
15:50 Gronk Seriman Thank you, Deans!
15:50 RainyDayRecess Thank you Deans :D
