Well boys and girls, have you seen the new look of the Independent? Basically what they are trying to do is take the little bit of editorialized news they have and make it look like more with the small format.

In his WDAM interview Shelboo said "I can't make everybody like me. I've tried that and it doesn't work." I must have missed his attempt to "make everyone like me". At which point in his presidency did he do that (I was out of town for several days last March; did I miss it?).

Yesterday appeared to be a busy day on the website and a "Thames News" link on the AAUP front page to a Sun Herald article, entitled "USM Up By 92 Students" was not discussed.
