What I like about Rutgers is how they don't have a special statement on their homepage titled "What SACS Probation Really Means."

The Magoo trivia is a nice touch, though. I always liked the guy who did the voice of Magoo and who played Thurston Howell, III, on "Gilligan's Island."

Okay, perhaps I need more coffee, but could someone explain these BABE threads to me?
(not the one where LVN deservedly won the prize). Are these schools that we should aspire to be like/go work at? If so, it is a little depressing . . . .

I explained myself on my first "Babe" thread, which preceded the "Cerebral Babe" thread. For those who missed it the first time:

While perusing the EagleTalk message board for material to use against the trolls, I ran across a thread on a linked board called “Babe of the Day,” which contains photos of “hot babes” in provocative poses and attire.

That thread got me to thinking: Can I add something like this to the AAUP Website? Of course, I cannot actually post pictures of “hot babes” out of respect for our fine female posters, and I cannot post pictures of “hot studs” out of respect for myself and the esteemed male posters. However, I can post something that is a lot more satisfying to all of us: a brief description and a link to an esteemed, non-SACS probation school’s website.

On the website, one can read about all of the activities that university’s community is engaging in while we are digging out from our mess of Thamesian (or should it be anti-Thamesian?(because he really is a very short man)) proportions. Pictures of academics engaging in teaching, research, and service without fear of email monitoring or random firing! While none of these “Babes of the Day” will be perfect, I am sure they all will look good to me. Maybe they will to you as well.
