Greetings everyone. |

Oxbridge Donation Coin R1 (Alternate Lecture Hall) |
Kara2016 gave a generous donation to help support classes and tutorials at Caledon Oxbridge Gateway. |
15:00 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Greetings, Kara, and thank you. |

Kara2016 |
Smiles brightly. |

Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Welcome to this week's Oxbridge Deans' Q&A. |
15:02 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
This is an open meeting, all are welcome except as individual misbehavior may require otherwise. |
15:02 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Transcripts will be posted on the website after the meeting. |
15:03 |

15:03 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Phrynne, can you start please? |
15:03 |
Phrynne |
I have two things today. |
15:04 |
Phrynne |
First, the ball touch or bubble popping game that we had on the side of the Hall of Caledon has had problems. |
15:04 |
Phrynne |
It's back with its creator for modification. |
15:04 |
Phrynne |
We hope to have it back up soon. |
15:04 |
Phrynne |
Second, if you use the dressing rooms in the Village, which is on this parcel, and if you are a member of the Oxbridge student group, please pick up your boxes and items before you go. |
15:05 |
Phrynne |
The reason |
15:05 |
Phrynne |
is that because this land is owned by the student group, things left behind aren't automatically returned as non-group items. |
15:05 |
Phrynne |
Which means I have to come over here and send them back. |
15:05 |
Phrynne |
It wouldn't be too bad if it were one or two things, but last week one person left about 30. |
15:05 |
Phrynne |
The week before someone else left 86. |
15:06 |
Lightweaver Balan |
O.O |
15:06 |
Phrynne |
So I am asking: please pick up your boxes, and whatever else you use there. |
15:06 |
Kara2016 |
ouch. |
15:06 |
Phrynne |
Sometimes people rez outfits to look at them instead of wearing them. Sometimes they leave boxes stuck through the walls of the dressing room. |
15:07 |
Phrynne |
Just... clean up after yourself, and if you see someone who doesn't, ask them to do it. |
15:07 |
Phrynne |
This doesn't happen in the dressing rooms on campus because the campus is owned by Caledon Oxbridge, not by the student group, so anything left is a non-group item, and gets returned in 10 minutes. |
15:07 |
Phrynne |
And that's what I have for now. |
15:07 |
|
Phrynne looks back at Word. |
15:08 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Thank you. Having each person pickup their own things also saves on floor replacement costs. |
15:09 |
Phrynne |
Yes, all those boxes wearing down the flooring... |
15:09 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Andrea, what do you have this week? |
15:11 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
nothing going on. RL has starting taking up more and more of my time as summer gets going. Will be working on a dark carnival for sometime in the near future. may holler for some help on that. |
15:11 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
has abandoned the slb project that I was working on. So just look for Wordsmith's and Rainy's build |
15:12 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
nothing really going on. Today is the last day of the Fair in the village. I took up the rides today.But the vendors selling stuff, they should still be there. |
15:12 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
including our own Samm Florian |
15:13 |
Kara2016 |
smiles |
15:13 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
Will up date as I go along. |
15:13 |
Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
looks back to word |
15:13 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Thank you, Andrea. |
15:14 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
A few things from me. I've got the weekly and monthly visitor summaries up on the web. |
15:14 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
http://www.caledonoxbridge.org/statistics/index.php |
15:15 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Up through March. April is till to come. |
15:15 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
It's amazing what a week can do. |
15:17 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Donations in the last week have caught us up to date for the current quarter and reduced the remaining deficit carried over from last quarter to 1848 $L. That carry-over started out as about 13k $L. |
15:17 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I sent updated financials to Andrea and Rainy this morning. |
15:18 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
So many thanks for keep Oxbridge up and running. |
15:18 |
Kara2016 |
smiles brightly. |
15:18 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And, I think we have a solution for the invisibility HUD problem. |
15:20 |
Lightweaver Balan |
good lord |
15:20 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And it's friendly, greeting the person. |
15:20 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Visibility Assistant: Hello, you appear to have misplaced your avatar and nametag. I'll be your visibility assistant while you are at Oxbridge. |
15:20 |
lovejoy2199 |
*smile* Cute |
15:20 |
Phrynne |
"Invisibility" HUDs actually shove the avatar underground while their viewpoint remains above ground. |
15:20 |
Gronk Seriman |
Ha! |
15:21 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
:-) |
15:21 |
Kara2016 |
i love it. |
15:21 |
Phrynne |
This should make it easier to know where the avatar is. |
15:21 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And the positioning and sizing can be fine-tuned. |
15:22 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And the arrows die, once the agent leaves Oxbridge (or the sim it was rezzed on0 |
15:22 |
lovejoy2199 |
I see you! |
15:23 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Okay, open for general questions. |
15:23 |
Krusty's Krypto Koins (christophermichael) |
I have a question |
15:23 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Krusty? |
15:24 |
Krusty's Krypto Koins (christophermichael) |
First I'm not new to SL but am new to Oxbridge and just want to say I really enjoy the classes and have learned a ton about taking photos, animations, building, etc. So thank you |
15:25 |
Krusty's Krypto Koins (christophermichael) |
my question |
15:25 |
Krusty's Krypto Koins (christophermichael) |
I am wanting to learn about mesh but the class keeps getting canceled, when will I be able to take this class? |
15:26 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Within the next week or two. That's my class, I'm updating it, but have had more than a few things to get done. |
15:27 |
Krusty's Krypto Koins (christophermichael) |
ok great thanks, looking forward to it. |
15:27 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Teddy, are you here with a question or comment? |
15:28 |
- ̗̀ Teddy Bear ̖́- (atlasshrugged3) |
No |
15:29 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Teddy, of course teaches photo salon, and has put some effort into it. |
15:29 |

Thank You ! |
15:29 |
- ̗̀ Teddy Bear ̖́- (atlasshrugged3) |

Wordsmith Jarvinen |
And I expect will be doing a field trip to SL15B when it's up. |
15:29 |

That is correct |
15:30 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |

Wordsmith Jarvinen |

15:32 |
star (astarynite) |
Not this week, thank you |
15:33 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Sandie, in the back, likely should be named professor in charge of puns, as well as teaching Make a Clock. |
15:33 |
star (astarynite) |
well, we are open to donations, full perm, if not we will take them with no mod, but prefer full perm |
15:33 |
star (astarynite) |

Sandie Harbour |

15:34 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Anything from the plaza, Gronk and Elf? |
15:34 |
Gronk Seriman |
Not that I can think of. |
15:35 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
Rather many "ask and dash" people lately but there is not much we can do about it. |
15:36 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
trip wires? |
15:36 |
Phrynne |
Nets? |
15:36 |

Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) |
free food |
15:36 |
Gronk Seriman |
Banana peels? |
15:37 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Anything else, questions, announcements. |
15:37 |
Sandie Harbour |
that reminds me of a pun |
15:37 |
Soup Jonson |
o O |
15:37 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Yes? |
15:38 |
Sandie Harbour |
Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana |
15:38 |
Larlotte Blackwater (larlotte) |
And anything sticky. |
15:38 |
Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) |
""I used to be an arrow like you but then I took a knee to the adventurer" |
15:38 |
Lightweaver Balan |
second time I heard that this week... |
15:39 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
An example also of why natural language is hard to parse. |
15:39 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Anything else? |
15:39 |
Larlotte Blackwater (larlotte) |
I think I'd rather take an adventurer to the knee. |
15:40 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
Then we are |
15:40 |
