Studying for finals

The professor for my College University Business Administration class emails us slides from class as study guides. I appreciate his attempt in trying to make budgeting slides somewhat enjoyable.

For God so
loved the
world that he
did not send a
committee.

…Well, in the
beginning that is.

Committees …get used to them.
Educational institutions love committees and as an employee of an educational institution you will be participating on committees. They are the essence of the governance structure and institutions democratic process.

As an administrator, your job will be to make the committee process work, to provide meaningful participation, and to lead whenever possible to purposeful outcomes that support the institution’s mission and master plan.


My professor has also taught me the appropriate use of the word "sexy" in a university setting. i.e.

Building a classroom = not sexy.
Building a Media Center = SEXY.

I will definitely be throwing "sexy" out around the office a lot more.

Now, back to studying for our final next week.

Building a redundant disk array = SEXY

Wait, no it's not...

Google Maps revealing intimate details about one particular moment in your life to the world = SEXY
