Back to school for faculty

Today the faculty is back on campus for faculty conference. Things are starting to come together as the first day of classes rapidly approaches. Dr. Dennis and Laura are giving a presentation on turnitin.com, which will be a new resource for LU's faculty and students.

The answer to yesterday's trivia question is Alice from Alice in Wonderland. The Lambuth library has an excellent collection of juvenile/young adult books available for check-out.

Today's trivia question: What did the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution do?
The answer to today's question will be posted on tomorrow's blog.

Word for the Day: solecism (noun) meaning a grammatical blunder.

Reading Tip for the Day: "Ante" is a Latin prefix meaning "before." Antebellum, antedated, and anterior are derivatives using this prefix.

Hope everyone has a really good day!
