CPRAM awards really do recognize the staff artists, layout people, web designers & others that generate a lot of material that every department on campus uses every day. Overall, USM's materials are high quality stuff.

I'm not talking about "propaganda" here, folks. I'm talking about the publications (print & web) that recruit prospective students & promote the University as a university. That's really the lion's share of what's done in PR.

Kudos to the PR staffers who work so hard behind the scenes on those publications.

Let me add my "kudos" here.  These are awards for the "little people behind the big people" (as we used to call ourselves when I worked at USM). 


Note to SFT:  by "little people," I'm not referring to you!  Really, I'm not.

How "hateful!" Kinda puts me in mind of a song...


Short People got no reason
Short People got no reason
Short People got no reason
To live

They got little hands
Little eyes
They walk around
Tellin' great big lies
They got little noses
And tiny little teeth
They wear platform shoes
On their nasty little feet

Well, I don't want no Short People
Don't want no Short People
Don't want no Short People
`Round here

Short People are just the same
As you and I
(A Fool Such As I)
All men are brothers
Until the day they die
(It's A Wonderful World)

Short People got nobody
Short People got nobody
Short People got nobody
To love

They got little baby legs
That stand so low
You got to pick 'em up
Just to say hello
They got little cars
That go beep, beep, beep
They got little voices
Goin' peep, peep, peep
They got grubby little fingers
And dirty little minds
They're gonna get you every time
Well, I don't want no Short People
Don't want no Short People
Don't want no Short People
'Round here

Invictus, that was great!!!!!  I forgot about that song.  Don't Want No Little People...  That should be sung at every future demonstration.  Sort of like the national anthem.

Oh Invictus, we in CoAL have been yearning for a good protest song, and you have found it! Of course it is simply too vindictive and hateful.

I will never be able to sing this song.  I know this is all in fun, but two of the "biggest" men it was ever my privilege to know, one my wonderful grandfather and one an eminent historian, epigrapher, author, scholar, and all around dam fine human being, both were about 5'3" --  It's all in the heart and the brain.


(not that I'm overtall myself)

Notice how the tone of the lyric changes midway to:

Short People are just the same
As you and I
(A Fool Such As I)
All men are brothers
Until the day they die
(It's A Wonderful World)

Thank you all for such kind words. Personally, the most enjoyable part of my job is working with "partners" to help create something for the community. It was nice that CPRAM recognized our efforts not once, but several times.


CPRAM story: While at the conference, Melanie Kemp (who has since left the university) and I got locked out on our balcony of the hotel at 1 a.m. We were taking a smoke and didn't know the door locked. It was such a gosh-awful thing because it was so funny and so stupid. I sat in a plastic chair, my feet up on the railing, puffing on my cig, thinking not how do we get out of this mess, but "dang, we can't read FireShelby out here."


This site really helped me learn what others think (accurately or inaccurately!) Thanks again, and good luck to you all.

Well, darn. I didn't put my name. That was tacky.


Good luck to you all and I pray the university heals quickly. I know that's asking a lot, but so many have been hurt that it's painful to even try to comprehend it all.
