Thank you Alison and Sanita!

If you missed out, yesterday SLU Connection was taken over by Alison Arida and Sanita Saengvilay who run the award winning music blog Toe Taps and Spastic Claps . They shared everything from their favorite places to see live music, their work at the Billiken Club to funny pictures of cats. For that, we can’t thank them enough. Click here to see everything they did.

Since we can’t say thank you enough we’ll try it in different languages.

After the success of Toe Taps, we at SLU Connection would like to extend the invitation to any CSOs or private bloggers out there. If you would like to hold the reins of SLU Connection for a day, send us a message and we’ll work to make it happen!

This Week’s Influential: Tim Brooks

Continuing our online town hall series, Ask an Influential, we introduce Tim Brooks, Vice President and Chief Information Officer of Information Technology Services (ITS).

Just like we did last week with Sam Howard SGA President (Click here to see Sam’s Answers), we will give you, the students, a chance to ask the burning questions you have about the technology of SLU. After we have closed off the comments we will choose the top ten questions submitted by you and give them to Mr. Brooks to answer. We’ll then post his answers on SLU Connection!

Don’t be shy with your questions!

Comments are held for a short time before being published to prevent profanity.

Laugh a little bit!

Alison and I sightly have an obsession with animals and if you never heard of the website, I Can Haz Cheezburger. You should right now.  It is simply a silly website that utilizes pictures of cats in strange situations and a language entitled LOLspeak.  According to Wikipedia,

“(often) broken English—a dialect which is known as “lolspeak” or “kitteh” and which parodies the poor grammar typically attributed to Internet slang

Here is one of my favorites from today!
