UCI What do you know about it?

I recently came across an interview with Chris Ronayne, new president of UCI. He talks about different aspects of UCI from residential development, marketing, the Euclid Corridor, to the instutions entering "a new era of collaboration". I think he has some good ideas and some old ideas just restated. His success will be measured by whether or not as new "mayor" of UCI these ideas will come to fruition. Watch the short interview
but beware it is horrible a taping, probably because it was done by and independent cleveland news organization.

Biswanath Halder

For some of you the name in title will mean almost nothing and for some it will bring back sad, horrific, and terrifying memories. Yesterday Mr. Halder was convicted of Aggravated Murder along with 196 counts felony counts. For the full story and more go here. Being it so close to break and with finals I think it is going to be hard to judge the reaction of the student body. Now with most of the students who were truly affected being 4th and 5th year seniors plus grad students, I am wondering if there will be a difference in the reaction especially what may come later on as Mr. Halder will most likely be put to death. For more on that view I encourage you to read this. My brother managed to write what I was going to say very eloquently.
