Shout Out
To Nick Blaine
Nick's wedding anniversary fell on the same night as his wedding anniversary. So what did he do during the performance....he took some Director Privilege...called his wife onto the stage...had his students bring her flowers and serenades his lovely wife. Please excuse my daughter being chatty in the background as I was recording.

Tina Banks from Lyons
Thank you for spreading positive messages and encouraging faculty and staff during the "Brag Tag." That was pretty cool.
