A Quick Clip (A Small Deviation from our Normal Programming)
Some welcome attention on the national stage for a worthwhile program.

Yesterday afternoon I was greeted with an odd e-mail that The Daily Show wanted to mention a program housed in Troy University’s Department of Anthropology, Sociology, and Criminology (which is part of the College of Arts and Science, where I am dean). It was not exactly what one expects on a Wednesday afternoon.
Apparently, they make mention of a nonprofit at the end of each show. And last night it was one very close to home:
I will confess, Roy’s description was a little off, but we appreciate the attention in any event. A detailed description can be found here: The Tutwiler Garden Project.

Congratulations and best wishes for continued success for your program.
Kudos to all involved.
This brings to mind a fellow that I once knew well but have not thought of recently. After retiring from the family business, a restaurant and adjoining motel, he worked for a local Community College teaching classes in Government at one of the several state prisons here in Southern Illinois. I vaguely remember asking him about his students and him saying that they were interested in the subject and that he thought that his effort was worthwhile. It has been well over twenty years since he died. Thank you for jogging my memory.

Neat!
