<> LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR
Weekly report Nov 4th
I spent two days at NSF this week, on an Advisory Panel for
Business Operations - talking about how to better organize
the NSF MREFC process. Surprisingly it was an interesting
discussion - primarily because most of the other folks on
the panel were physicists and astronomers and the very different
way they have of looking at the world was enlightening.
I suffered the dual horrors of a crashed laptop and a dead
cell phone battery which left me twitching from lack of communicative
ability. Amazingly, upon my return everything was just fine.
We interviewed the finalists for the Administrative Assistant
position in the Director's office last week (the replacement
for Violeta Tomsa who deserted us for the US Postal Service
a little while ago.) So now there is a new voice on the phone
and a new face beside Bev. Please welcome Janine Theurer to
Lamont when you see her - she comes to us with a degree in
psychology from The University of Arizona, and we are hopeful
that this skill will help us better navigate the administrative
complexities of this great institution.
Our Development Office has developed a number of new Lamont-centric
items to increase our visibility and name recognition - thanks
to Ronnie and Pat there is wonderful new display of these
in the
cafeteria. With the need to think of many innovative gift
ideas for the coming Holidays think of showering your friends
and family with lovely Lamont memorabilia.
Enjoy the weekend - it will not be over seventy degrees again
for a long while.
-Mike
