As we already know, the new campus slogan will be “unstoppable starts here!” and the big advertising campaign to roll it out was set for this coming Monday. Late this afternoon we learn that the campaign isn’t quite unstoppable. Officials canceled the Monday event, which will be rescheduled for after weather seems less uncertain. Classic!

“Unstoppable” reception on Monday, February 8, 4-6 pm, has been cancelled. Due to the snow storm, the conditions on campus are too unpredictable, and it was not certain we would be able to get the exhibits in place or the food service provided. We will reschedule the event.
