I just feel that in a discussion of his impact on UL, it shouldn't ignore the very real positives he has brought to the university. BTW, what's a "dreg"?

    Thanks, mon ami. Going to Jazzfest on Sunday! Can you believe it? I've never been before. I've been to several FestInt's and many Festivals Acadiens, but no JF's.

    My memory is the look of shock and amazement on his face when he saw the set up and the crowd at last year's Fan Day. I guess he was bowled over at the turnout and the organization of the event compared to previous years when zero effort was put into the event. Amazing what just a little bit of effort, imagination and allowing people the latitude to do their jobs without micromanaging can accomplish.

    Does that mean they won't be selling beer????
