Distributed cookies. Gave Melissa a new keyboard because her old one had stopped working. James's new monitor arm had arrived, so I left it in his office. Helped Cindy make a decision about paint color in the outer hallway. Downloaded Marratech Pro 3.4 and installed it. Tested videoconferencing with Rodney—got it working after he tried a bunch of different headsets. Lunch at the School of Pharmacy holiday party at the Faculty Alumni House: as usual a very nice affair with 4 food stations: dim sum (Peking duck, shau mai, hum bow, and 2 or 3 other kinds of dim sum), southern (gumbo, southern rice, and more), roast turkey, and desserts (lots of cookies and cakes and chocolates). Gave Cindy a new keyboard because her old one was sticky. Gave Cindy and James golf ball USB extension cords. Met with James to review changes to the admissions pages then made them live: interview reply form and calendar. Met with Susie: CSCC banner graphic for Bill Soller, old domain name redirection, contact us page changes, minor QB wording changes. Updated the prospective students calendar (which is also the outreach calendar). Dinner at home with Patrick: repeat from last night. Lodestar work: a bunch of edits from writers.
