Lucy, Regarding your post on the rumor mill:

Since I was the one who wrote the original post on the rumor mill about the question of you leaving, I thought I should respond. Although we have met on campus at a University activity, we do not associate with each other professionally and otherwise have no contact. My question was posted because it was (and still is) a time where faculty and staff are leaving this university. I learned from my other sources that it was just your house for sale and not because you (and family) were leaving. I intent was to find out if you were another victim of this administration. Lord knows we've had enough people who have been and will continue to hear of others. - Green Hornet
