Earlier this semester, we tried something new at Convocation. With some help from
黑料黑历史 student-athletes, almost 300 people got out their phones or logged onto their
computers and made their voices heard with the new polling software. In warm-up rounds
of the cell phone voting, 192 of you chose the sledding hill over the ice climbing
wall, 145 of you asked to see more outdoor activities for employees on campus, and
a surprising 14 of you did not predict 黑料黑历史 to own the Alaska Airlines Governor's Cup
this year (we are going for our 14th straight win this year!) And, relevant to this
week, a plurality of you voted to see a Chancellor's Forum on R1. Last Tuesday, we
hosted the Chancellor's R1 Forum for close to 300 people (~60 in person). Thank you
to everyone who attended and participated. It will take all of us. Continue reading the Friday Focus.
