Well our peeps got the kids moved in last week, and classes start tomorrow. New Student Orientation is done, which is run by my department and is a huge deal every year.

As my contribution, I spent the whole week tethered to my computer making this:

(Part of the NSO week is the Penn Reading Project where the freshmen all read the same book (or the same painting, in this year's case) and discuss it during NSO as an "intro to college" sort of thing. Last year and this year we commissioned music from my boss's brother's band, The Indoorfins, and I made videos. This year's video was much more involved than last year's, taking 6 days to make rather than one.)

Ah, Orientation. I didn't have to do it this year with my new job (and like you, my office was intimately involved with the nuts and bolts of both the mid-summer program where the new students come in and register for classes, and Orientation when they move in the weekend before classes start). SOOOOOO glad I don't have to do that anymore. :)
