Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, University closed on Monday<http://education.utsa.edu/SPOTLIGHT/article/university_closed_on_monday>
[http://education.utsa.edu/images/uploads/iStock_000019090152_Small.jpg]
The University will be closed on Monday in observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. The purpose of the public holiday is to remember the struggles that people have had to overcome to obtain civil rights. As the holiday approaches, many schools dedicate class sessions to teaching students about the importance of preventing racism and other forms of prejudice. In recent years, the holiday observing the birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr has become an opportunity for Americans to dedicate their day off to providing volunteer services to charitable organizations that are aimed at ending prejudice and helping people who feel they have been discriminated against.

You Won the Powerball. How Many of Higher Ed’s Problems Can You Solve?<http://chronicle.com/blogs/ticker/you-won-the-powerball-how-many-of-highe...>
by Rio Fernandes, The Chronicle of Higher Education | 01/15
If you missed the Great Lottery Craze of 2016, news broke overnight that three Powerball winning tickets for the $1.568-billion prize were sold to some very lucky people. We’re assuming you didn’t buy one of those tickets (shouldn’t you be shopping for a private island?), but let’s assume that you did and wanted to use all of that money in higher education. Which, if any, of the following problems could you fix single-handedly?

We’ve converted a few classrooms to more collaborative spaces over the last few years at The College of Westchester, and faculty reaction has generally been quite positive. These initial room changes have revolved around modifying the layout of a few classrooms from the row-by-row footprint of the traditional lecture room to a more interactive, group-oriented layout of round tables.

The rumors are true, at least one of them, about me! I am definitely retiring effective January 31. My husband Mark retired in May after 42 years of service with the USDA and after much thought and soul searching, I decided to follow him so that we can enjoy each other's company more (we hope!), take up gardening and building fence (gardening is me, fence building I will leave to Mark!), and relocate to our new home in Brady TX. We left Brady 45 years ago as naïve, young (boy, were we young!) freshmen at Texas Tech. Since that time, our life has been somewhat like the career of a bull rider...lots of ups and towns, toss and turns, bucked off and back up for the next ride, succeeding sometimes riding to the whistle blows and earning points, and finally retiring from the rodeo complete with sore joints, bummed knees, and a feeling of wow, what a ride but we sure did enjoy it all! We have bought a 1910 historic home in Brady to remodel...yea, I know, we are crazy but have to do something in old age! Mark's family's ranch is in McCullogh County as well as many of his relatives. Thus, the fence building and brush control that Mark plans to spend time on. I guess my research in defining a sense of place has finally come up close and personal...this our place where we feel connected and comfortable. As my youngest son once said when he was about six and we took him to the home town cemetery to "meet" his ancestors, he declared 'Boy, there are sure a lot of dead Moseleys buried here!"
You are all invited to stop by, visit, and set a spell with us. We have the room and the time! And we will leave the light on for you! I wish the best to all of you and have enjoyed my time here at UTSA and in San Antonio!
