Weird Things in the Writing Center

For those of you who have never visited Coe, or who haven't seen our new area, I decided to got take pictures of what I think are some of the weirder things in our Writing Center.

First off, cardboard cut-outs:

Abraham Lincoln's head fell down

We seem to accumulate cardboard cut-outs of various people. Don't ask me why; they just seem to appear in the WC on a given day.

Also, giant stuffed animals:

And busts of composers:

I think this used to be Beethoven, but now its a nightmare...

But the highlight of the Writing Center is definitely our expansive mug collection, which seems to have grown quite a bit in our new space:

My two favorites are the toilet shaped one and the owl shaped one:

You can't go wrong with owls.



As always, yours truly,

Also: We all survived Vegas (even Andrew K, sort of).

Updates!

Here are some updates from Bob:

-Tomorrow's staff meeting will be held in the Writing Center instead of the Lynch Room. We'll have delicious, free food from Aladdin, so come early (5:45) to get some chow.

-Topics this week will meet in the library by the downstairs computer lab. We'll be having an e-portfolio workshop.

-For Vegas people: you're responsible for contacting all of your professors to let them know you'll be gone and to take care of any missed assignments. Presentation teams will be meeting individually with Bob sometime this week, and should plan to have completed posters ready for next Monday's meeting (the 27th).

-If you're considering applying for the May Term Writers Colony in the Lake District, applications are due this Friday (24th). "The application consists of a one-page document indicating the reasons why you would like to be enrolled in the class." For more info, contact Bob, or talk to one of the WC's alumni: Jenna, Whitney, Johanna. Here, for solidarity, are some Lake District photos from the 2007 May Term:
