A mighty roar!

To our music department for the wonderful production of Oliver this past weekend.  Christy’s direction, Amy’s set design, Michelle’s lighting design, and Tim and Wendy’s music made for an incredible show.  Thanks to all of you that helped out with making this production a great success.

Where is Livingston? 

 Jackie Sundal states “Seema Pirani and Veena Brahmbhatt are deserving of Livingston. With smiling faces they are there to greet you and provide great service to students and faculty bright and early in the cafeteria.  I would like to think that everyone who goes through the breakfast line gives them a smile and a thank you in return, but we all know not everyone is a morning person.  I hope they know they are appreciated and admired for their attitude and service.   We agree!

Happy Birthday
