Let's Have a Contest!

So loyal readers, you may have noticed an aesthetic change to the site. Yes, we changed the picture from the shrubbery that had adorned our blog for the past four and half years. After receiving many comments about missing the old, I decided that have old and new on the same site. You will see two of the choices in our newly announced CSU Faculty Voice Graphics Contest. Yes, loyal readers, you will be able to vote for your favorite graphic that will adorn our humble site. Our first two choices are below.

Number 1:

Number 2:

The voting on these first two contestants will close on Thursday at 5PM

I vote for #1 but the shrubbery is a close second. At CSU who are the Knights of Ni and who the 'weary travelers'?

Thanks to Haki Madhabuti

"1. He/she must be a scholar of national note, with significant peer review publications and books in his or her field. There must be no doubt as to his/her standing in the community of scholars. This would also include a history of the candidate’s participation in the appropriate professional organizations.

2. He/she must have served with distinction as the administrative head of a major unit within an institution of higher learning or at the important position of Provost and/or Dean. Of course, prior service at the presidential level is preferred.

3. He/she must have a documented history of raising significant monies from the private and public sectors. At most major and research one universities it is not unusual to expect the president to come with a plan to raise in excess of half a billion dollars or more in the first few years.

4. The prospective president must have a consensus buy-in from the faculty, students, administration and staff, therefore, arriving with a unity mandate to lead by joining a University community that has bought into his or her vision for the future."

From an open letter to the CSU Community, 2009.
