.....OK, I'm spending my holiday with my second bad cold in a row—plus a bad case of gout in my left foot. Dang!
.....On the other hand, as of two weeks ago, I've got HIGHSPEED. Yippee! I feel so modern!
.....So, naturally, it's time for me to make videos and dump 'em on the internet, which is what I've been doing these last few days.
.....I actually spent some time on this one, though. I'm proud of it! 'Twern't easy to edit. Not a bit.
.....LESS THAN A MONTH after the SOCCCD Board decided (in February, 2005) to nix the "study abroad in Spain" program—owing to Spain's having "abandoned" us by withdrawing its troops from Iraq—the community responded, loudly and clearly.
.....Many chose to speak that night (March 22), including several faculty and lots of amazingly articulate students. I couldn't fit them all on this edit (YouTube limits the size of videos), but I got most of 'em in. Check em out!
.....It really was a great moment in the history of our district.
More to come!

"Historical" video: the Raghu P. Mathur Saga, pt. 1
THIS VIDEO concerns an SOCCCD board meeting in the summer of 2005 in which faculty showed up in great numbers to urge the board not to renew Raghu Mathur's contract (as Chancellor).
The board, including Trustee Dave "quisling" Lang, renewed Mathur's contract. They even granted him a quarter-million dollar salary.
Garsh.
Many faculty spoke that night, but, for this clip, I've highlighted only two speakers. Check it out!
