Below is my latest video production that was shown during this morning’s assembly. Although it’s only a little over 8 minutes long, it took a lot! I entered Trinity’s doors for a 7:30 AM meeting yesterday, and walked to my car at 7:30 PM last night. I wanted to do the subject matter justice. From… Read more

I started following a new blog (new to me) about a week or so ago. The way I came across it is somewhat amusing.

I realized this morning that I felt much the same way this time last year as I… Read more

Although Trinity has technically had a Twitter account since 2007, we launched our “official Twitter presence” today. But who knew what an ordeal it would be when the Director of Communications asked me to put the icon on the home page? Wow! Talk about some serious coding! The problem is that each section on the… Read more

This is one of the books offered for summer reading at my job this past summer – Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria? And Other Conversations About Race, written by Spelman College President, Dr. Beverly Tatum. Faculty and Staff members who chose to read the book gathered at the beginning… Read more

Since switching to the iPhone, I’ve been trying to figure out exactly how I want my notes to sync (I’ll spare everyone the details). I think I’ve finally figured out the best method, but as I was sorting through all 90 notes, I ran across a prayer from almost 3 years ago. It was at… Read more
