Wood type museum seeks funds for new home
You've heard us on the plight of the Hamilton Wood Type Museum before. The only museum on the planet dedicated to the preservation, study and use of wood type, with about 1.5 million pieces of type once used in posters and newspaper headlines, is being evicted from its historic home in Two Rivers.
AIGA Wisconsin, the professional organization for designers and creatives in the region, is throwing its weight behind the museum's cause by holding a special fundraising event. »Read Full Article
Skylight makes the most of bland 'Pump Boys'
In the fictionalized North Carolina being served up in "Pump Boys and Dinettes," the country music pastiche that's now open for business at Skylight Music Theatre, none of the six characters actually works much.
To be sure, designer Brandon Ribordy has stuffed this really fun, vintage 1950s set - half gas station and half diner - with props suggesting that the four pump boys might actually service cars and the two fun-loving waitresses next door might actually take and fill orders. »Read Full Article(2)
Florentine finds cozy home for 'Albert Herring'
If you're looking for the Florentine Opera Company, you'll find them in Vogel Hall for the next couple of weeks, trying something a little different.
Veering away from stage-filling grand opera, the company opened a lighthearted production of Benjamin Britten's chamber opera "Albert Herring" Friday evening, in the Marcus Center for the Performing Arts' smallest performance space. »Read Full Article

Wensum Valley Overnighter
Stayed one night whilst on business in the area.
Good food in the bar, small but decent pool with sauna and spa. Room was spacious and very clean, TV was wall mounted and but very small, good bathroom and excellent shower. Selection of juices, cereal etc and a cooked-to-order hot breakfast was good. Overall very good value for money for midweek, overnight business stay

Wensum Experience
Hotel is well situated, has 2 golf courses and on the face of it quite attractive venue.
However, the walls in my room 28, were particularly thin. Verbal conversations, I phone charging and kettle can be heard as if you are in the adjoining room. As a heavy sleeper, I was staggered at the noise late into the evening and again in the early morning. Having travelled for over 40 years, stayed in many grand and modest accommodation, this ranked as an all time low. "White van man" clientele was evident on the car park and prevalent throughout the bar areas. There were issues with my room that were not addressed by management and a disappointing experience. its hard to find any redeeming features on this hotel. I did not use the leisure club, the golf pro was very helpful as were general staff. Sadly the quality of a basic room was lacking. I stayed for 6 nights, checked out a day early due to inefficiencies.

I really do not understand all of this. Yes he left us but if somebody offered to pay you a lot more than you are earning now and give you the chance to work for whoever is the seen as one the best company's in your particular industry wouldn't you give it a go!!! Course you would. Liar if you say no.Then if it all went tits up and you felt that you had made a big mistake, would you be really chuffed if your previous employer got in touch and said hey come on back. Course you would. In fact you would be very grateful and even more determined to repay that and be even more loyal than you were before.We loved him when he was with us and we will love him again. He gives his all (unlike some that we have ie Bently) and he scores goals.Get over it and give him and the team the support they need. The last thing the team needs now is bickering about who should be Captain or who should be first down the tunnel for Christs sake. If any of the team are "upset" by him coming back or being made Captain and they throw their Rolex's out of their Bently convertables then they can f£$k off as far as I am concerned as they obviously don't really care about who they play for.

Anthropology is the study of humans.
Anthropologists want to know everything about our species, from its earliest origins to its complex present, and use every tool and question we can think of to understand our embodied, social nature.
Anthropology, like its object of study, is complicated and fascinating.

2015 LIS7190 Social Justice and Children's/YA Literature list
June 15, 2015 in Uncategorized | Tags: childlit, social justice, StKate, YA | Leave a comment
(NOTE: The syllabus is heavy on black children's and YA literature because I revised the course in light of the #BlackLivesMatter movement, and so we could use the concepts learned and discussed through those texts as examples for discussions of related issues in youth lit and social justice. I am fully aware that my reading list is not representative of all social justice issues, but what I hope is that by discussing a narrow segment, my students and I can learn to think broadly in terms of ideology, positionality, authorship, power, privilege, etc as they relate to about social justice and children's literature.)

Adoptee Roundtable on MPR
July 13, 2012 in Uncategorized | Tags: adoption, myfriendsareawesome, social justice | 1 comment
In contrast to Monday's MPR program on the decline of international adoption that was comprised entirely of non-adoptees (see my previous post on this topic), today's MPR panel, brought about by vocal and articulate adoptees criticizing MPR's choice of panelists, is comprised entirely of adoptees:
- Kim Park Nelson: Associate professor of American multicutlural studies at Minnesota State University at Moorhead
- JaeRan Kim: Stability, permanency and adoption coordinator at the Center for Advanced Studies in Child Welfare at the University of Minnesota
- Kelly Fern: Author of 'Songs of My Families'
My only criticism is this: Tom Weber focused the conversation on race and racism for 40 minutes. JaeRan Kim, Kim Park Nelson and Kelly Fern totally rocked it with their answers to his questions, but why didn't he ask them on their thoughts about the decline of international adoption?
MPR, International Adoption, and oh wait… where's the adult adoptee on the adoption panel?
July 9, 2012 in Uncategorized | Tags: adoption, Minnesota, MPR, social justice | 18 comments
[update/note: for new readers, this is full disclosure that I myself am not an adopted Korean. I am a Korean American daughter of immigrant Korean parents. I am an assistant professor at St. Catherine University in the Master of Library and Information Science Program, and I study representations of adoption in children's literature and adoptee information seeking behaviors. I consider myself an ally and advocate for adoptees and ethical adoption.]
Yes, it's true. I blog mostly when I'm really annoyed. There's a whole lot more to the background of international adoption than I can post here, but for a brief background at least on the Republic of Korea, check out Dr. Kim Park Nelson's "Mapping Multiple Histories of Korean American Transnational Adoption."
Recently we have seen several articles regarding the "precipitous decline" in international adoptions; one reason for these declines is that there has been so much documented corruption, child trafficking, questionable behaviors, etc., in international adoption, so some countries have shut down their adoption programs – and rightly so. Countries have decreased the numbers of children they make available for adoption because they are trying to care for the children within their own countries, mostly by way of domestic adoption programs, which is a nice thought but fails to address the root problem of why so many children are being orphaned/made into "legal" or "social" orphans in the first place. Another reason may be that birth mothers are being incredibly brave and choosing to raise their children as single mothers. These are all valid and good reasons to decrease the numbers of children adopted internationally. Don't get me wrong – I'm not anti-adoption. Adoption is and should be a good thing and a great way for a child to find a home. But in recent decades the institution has spiraled out of control and created a market for children that has broken up many existing families. So I'm actually anti-unethical adoption. Anyway, back to the main topic at hand.
Today MPR had another program on the decline of international adoption . Here's the panel of 4, as stated on the MPR Daily Circuit page:
- (adoptive father) Dana Johnson: Professor of pediatrics in the division of neonatology at the University of Minnesota, founded the International Adoption Clinic
- (adoptive mother) Maureen Warren: President of Children's Home Society
- Jodi Harpstead: Chief executive officer of Lutheran Social Service of Minnesota
- (adoptive father) David McKoskey: Adoptive father, professional computer programmer and adjunct professor of computer science at St. Catherine University (full disclosure: David has guest lectured in my LIS7530 Internet Fundamentals and Design class – and done a fantastic job of it.)
As usual, there are no adult adopted persons on this panel. There is no shortage of adult adoptees in Minnesota who are adoption professionals, activists, etc., that could have balanced out the perspectives and experiences represented by this panel. Earlier this morning when we learned that this program was happening, adoptees encouraged one another to call-in with their comments in order to get their voices heard. Here's my (almost) live blogging of what went down:
What MPR talked about:
- The declining numbers in international adoption
- The continuing "need" for international adoption (never mind that the number of global "orphans" are conflated and inaccurate)
- How open adoptions can change the landscape of contemporary adoption
- The impact of the Hague Convention on international adoptions
- How they would prefer the safety of children over volume… but when the volume increased so quickly… that attracted a lot of different agencies and operators… and there "might have been some safety and care sacrificed."
- The goal is to get the number rising again so children can be placed (which I read as "and also so that our finances can stabilize")
- They actually talked about adult adoptees who are now professionals: "Particularly adult Korean adoptees that are influencing the arts, that are influencing adoption, that are very interested in contributing to all walks of life in Minnesota" (except even though they are influencing adoption, we haven't invited any of them to this panel).
- That there's a "special place in heaven" for the families who open their homes to a child. She needs to read David Smolin's "Of Orphans and Adoption, Parents and the Poor, Exploitation and Rescue: A Scriptural and Theological Critique of the Evangelical Christian Adoption and Orphan Care Movement."
- That prospective adoptive parents need to be patient because small delays are just that – small delays in the long run.
- Kevin Ost-Vollmers called out MPR for not inviting adult adoptees to this panel, and MPR answered that the program focuses on the drop in adoptions and therefore they invited people who work at agencies, and rather, that adoptees could call-in with their comments. I'm not sold on this answer, as I think they need to address the root of the problem – that adoptions may happen at the expense of exploited/misinformed families, and that watching out for them should be a major priority for anyone concerned about building/maintaining healthy families.
- 1st caller: adoptee and adoptive father
- 2nd caller: adoptive mother of Korean daughter: "adoption has really opened our family up"
- 3rd caller: domestic adoptee who adopted internationally
- 4th caller: domestic adoptee whose wife is adopted, father is adopted, brother is adopted, and is the adoptive father of 2 children from Ethiopia. Thinks CHS is a great organization. Drives him crazy when people say "Your girls are so lucky. We're the lucky ones!"
- 5th caller: asked about the role of infertility in the adoption process
- 6th caller: KEVIN OST-VOLLMERS! Korean adoptee, blogger and adoptee activist called out MPR for not inviting Korean adoptees to the program!!! And asked another question about culture and whiteness, but I didn't catch the whole thing because I was so excited that he actually got through the phone lines. I'm so not satisfied with MPR's answer.
What I wish MPR had talked about:
- Some real life examples of intentional fabrication/falsification of documents or child abduction and unintended adoptions, as told by adoptees and/or birth families and/or adoptive parents themselves. Consider, for example:
- Jane Jeong Trenka's story where false documents led to her unauthorized adoption and legal severance from her biological mother: http://jjtrenka.wordpress.com/about/adoption-file/
- Deann Borshey Liem's story where a Korean social worker swapped her in for another child in order to get a daughter to a waiting family: http://www.mufilms.org/films/matter-of-cha-jung-hee/
- Tammy Chu's film about a Korean adoptee and his birth mother: http://www.resiliencefilm.com/Welcome.html
- David Smolin's story as an adoptive father (and adoption/legal scholar) who found out that his own adopted children had been trafficked: http://works.bepress.com/david_smolin/
And let's not forget so-called "well-intentioned" Christian organizations that want to expedite and process international adoptions without following established legal procedures. Consider what the Idaho churches tried to do in Haiti after the earthquake: http://www.sltrib.com/news/ci_14338123
That's all, just some real life adoptees, birth parents, (and adoptive parents, although their stories get PLENTY of airtime already), and their real life stories. It gets better, right, MPR? Can we extend this conversation and add another program that features the voices of adult adoptees/adoptee professionals?
2012 July 11 update: As a follow up, check out the following:
- Kevin Ost-Vollmer's blog post on the MPR program: http://landofgazillionadoptees.com/2012/07/10/wtf-mpr/
- MPR's response: http://minnesota.publicradio.org/display/web/2012/07/09/daily-circuit-international-adoption/
- Sometimes I don't read the comments because it can be frustrating to read the same (however unintentional) ignorant comments over and over again, but in this case, the comments are what makes the whole thing.
2012 July 12 update: Tomorrow, this is finally happening:
- MPR's Daily Circuit is doing a follow-up with a panel of adoptees, adoption scholars and adoption professionals (Dr. Kim Park Nelson, JaeRan Kim, and Ami Nafzger)! Please tune in and support my friends/colleagues: http://minnesota.publicradio.org/display/web/2012/07/13/daily-circuit-roundtable-adoption/

She is "taking part in a sweepstakes through MyrtleBeachTrips.com that will have her eating dinner and playing a round of golf at Pawleys Plantation in late fall with eight winners, and she'll be wearing the Myrtle Beach Trips logo on the sleeve of her golf shirts in competition." NGM representatives and Gulbis "anticipate the partnership extending" beyond '14 (Myrtle Beach SUN NEWS, 1/21).
NEED FOR SPEED: GOLFCHANNEL.com noted Paulina Gretzky, the fiancée of golfer Dustin Johnson, "posted on her various social-media accounts that she is currently filming a commercial for TaylorMade." It is "unclear her exact role in the clip." A "close inspection" of a photo she posted "shows that she is wearing a badge with the words SPEED POLICE" (GOLFCHANNEL.com, 1/16).

"It is with very deep regret that I confirm the death of former Tánaiste, Minister and Deputy Leader of Fine Gael, Peter Barry, who passed away peacefully in Cork this morning surrounded by his family.
Jim Daly, Fine Gael Cork South West TD and Chairman of the Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs, has warmly welcomed this week's finding by the Equality Tribunal that a County Cavan school discriminated against a student for not allowing his assistance dog to accompany him to the classroom. Deputy Daly said that the case highlights the need for an Education Ombudsman to protect students, parents and school staff.
Fine Gael Dublin Rathdown Senator, Neale Richmond, has today (Tuesday) welcomed the release of new CSO figures showing that net migration amounted to 3,100 in 2016, representing a return to net inward migration for the first time since 2009. Senator Richmond said that this dispels the myth that the drop in the unemployment rate is solely down to emigration.
Fine Gael Cork Senator, Tim Lombard, has spoken out against a proposal to close the express lane at the Portlaoise toll plaza on the Cork to Dublin motorway, saying it will not solve the current impasse and will be a huge inconvenience to commuters and businesses.
Fine Gael Cork North Central Senator and Seanad Spokesperson on Health, Colm Burke has made a submission to the Minister for Finance, Michael Noonan, seeking the introduction of income tax relief for Graduate Entry Medical Students to help retain them here in Ireland.
Fine Gael Mayo Senator, Michelle Mulherin, has said that Mayo is to benefit from the newly launched Town and Village Renewal Scheme for Rural Ireland, which aims to revitalise up to 200 towns and villages across the country.
Fine Gael TD for Wicklow and Minister for Food, Forestry and Horticulture, Andrew Doyle has welcomed the news that the state is buying 2,000 hectares of land in the Dublin Mountains, to expand Wicklow Mountains National Park.
Fine Gael Dublin Rathdown Senator, and Government spokesman on EU Affairs in the Seanad, Neale Richmond, has repeated his call for Ireland to be an alternative host for the rotating Presidency of the Council of the European Union, which was due to be hosted by the UK in July 2017.
Seanad Leas Cathaoirleach and Fine Gael Kerry Senator, Paul Coghlan, has said that the Irish tourist industry will continue to thrive despite Britain's decision to leave the European Union. Speaking during a commencement debate in the Seanad, Senator Coghlan asked the Minister for Tourism, Patrick O'Donovan, to outline the Government's plans for the domestic tourist industry in light of Brexit.

Exhausting Weekend
Grace was up first
As dilligent as we try to be with brushing. Grace is our biggest offender of falling asleep without brushing her teeth. As a result she ended up with two cavities in her back baby teeth. Since she is supposed to have these baby teeth until about age 11 we will be going back in a couple weeks for some fillings which should be an interesting visit.
Tim and Jake did well with their visits. Their behavior in the waiting room well thats another story
Connor had his first visit. He watched a little while his siblings had their turn so he wouldn't be as nervous
I ended up laying in the chair with him, and he let the doctor brush his teeth with a regular toothbrush but that was about it.
The rest of yesterday as pretty laid back we got foodshopping done and things were pretty low key.
This morning my sister came over and we headed out for an outdoor run. Now a couple days ago we finally got some snow around here
Since it snowed it had started to get warmer out again so a lot of it has already melted but there were still some slick spots today. When I woke up I wasnt feeling it at all, I think the stress of life combined with that time of the month just had me feeling blah but I knew I had to exercise so we headed out. We ended up covering about 6.26 miles. Since my arch is still bugging me a little we slowed our pace down to about a 10:50 mile so it was more about distance than speed.
Running outside definitely gives you a wake up call as to where you are fitness wise. Running on the treadmill while a lot more boring feels so much easier. Hopefully with daylight savings coming up I can start to get some outdoor mileage in during the week too.
After my run, I finally forced myself to do some chores as they were sorely overdue. Got a good amount of laundry, and the bathrooms done.
So that was our weekend. Hope everyone had a good one as well. Right now this Mom is heading to bed, to start a new week of craziness tomorrow.
Goodnight :)

Sissoko should have been sent off and he should get a ban. Gerrard obviously couldnt get out of the way and for you to say he should have shows your bias. Funniest thing I saw yesterday was Moaninho defending that animal Geremi. Fucking arms flying everywhere.

just to end the discussion - from the victime of the incident -
" I just think Steven's accidentally stamped on me," said Nolan.
"His full weight was on his leg so it hurt but it's just one of those things.
"I thought it might have been deliberate at the time because he hurt me. I wanted to have a look at it and I have now and I don't think there was anything in it.
"I don't think anything should happen to him now because it would not be deserved."
A Yahoo! User Jan 3, 2006 22:22 Flag
Idiot who hasn't got a clue about football. I agree that Sissoko was lucky, and no doubt the old farts at Lancaster gate will give him retrospective punishment, but Gerrard? What did you expect him to do, detach his leg whilst he was up in the air? There is this little thing called gravity you fuckin imbecile, and in case you didn't notice, it was Nolan who clattered into Gerrard, so it was a goddam accident as Nolan himself has testified.
A Yahoo! User Jan 3, 2006 22:15 Flag
biast ...... heh heh is that how they spell it now ??? - next year ask for a dictionary and an abc 123 how to play football book.
just to respond to your playground provocation - stevie had nowhere to land and if you listen to the commentary and pundits they were all in agreement(lets not get into the stupidity of the lunge in the first place !)
i acknowledge the foul by sissoko but can you justify diouff diving 5 times in one match (it was no where near as bad as essiens tackle)
last night we atched one team namely liverpool attemt to engage in a game of football and another team engage in pure spoiling tactics - suggest you come back when you know a little more about the game and more importantly what you are talking about
and finally - luck heh heh yeah right looking forward to few more wise words from sour sam !!!

Lower Manhattan 'Ring Of Steel' To Have 3,000 Cameras By 9/11/11The so-called "ring of steel" is nearing completion in lower Manhattan. It's a network of security measures intended to counter-terrorism and fight crime. CBS 2 got a rare look inside the nerve center on Friday.

Currently the setting for which categories' posts to show is a dropdown list where only one category can be selected. It would be most useful to have it as a list with checkboxes instead, allowing multiple choices.
This allows for example a front page like this:
First, layout 1, showing posts from the most important category X.
And below, layout 2, showing posts from categories Y and Z.
In reference to my other suggestion about excerpt option improvements, those two layouts could have completely different excerpt and other options.

1991 Subaru Legacy Wagon L 4dr Wagon
I bought this 1991 Subaru legacy wagon with 5 speed manual transmission from the original owner 13 years ago. It now has 247,000 miles on it. It runs great. Most repairs have been normal maintenance. The biggest issue now is that it barely made it through DEQ last year. Too much CO. Next year may be it. Oh, and yes, gas mileage is pretty bad if all you do is drive traffic light to traffic light. That produces 15 mpg when I do that. But usually I get 19 in mixed, mostly city, driving, and 30 on the freeway at 60 mpg. There are lots of SUV's out there but very few Japanese station wagons being made any more. I'm keeping this one until it blows up. Or flunks DEQ.
The overall size is small, but it has ample room for 5 adults. Back seat has good leg room, even with the front seats pushed all the way back.
Mine requires premium, for some reason. Other people with this model run regular. Do not expect to blow somebody off the line at a traffic light. Going up mountains with any kind of load you may end up in 3rd gear. Power is not its forte.
My mom bought our Subaru Legacy L wagon used and drove the heck out of it (back and forth to college at least 3 times a week [94 miles a trip].). We still own this car and it still runs and drives quite well at over 350,000 miles. In owning this car for several years we have only had to have it worked on 3 times and have put a little more than 225,000 miles on it. This Legacy has been the most reliable and tough vehicle that we have ever owned. This was the first car I learned to drive and Subaru has been my favorite automotive company ever since.
Roomy, very comfortable seats, good fuel economy, big trunk, great sound system, extremely reliable engine and powertrain, tough body and pretty fun to drive (for a wagon).
This car could've had a more aerodynamic body and maybe the air suspension system from the '91 XT6 to make the ride somewhat smoother, but other than that just a great car.

legacy l wagon for the past two years

would make an excelent first car. for
an old wagon i was extremely suprized
to discover the pep that the car can
deliver. i have an automatic
transmission, and i really seems to
choose the gears well depending on how
much pressure you put on the gas. with
a little wider tires, the vehicle seems
to have a better feel on the road, so i
would suggest that as an aftermarket
ABS, power steering, power windows,
power door locks, security device
again the wider wheels. also a cd
player is nice

The week before I moved, I called U-Haul 3 times to request confirmation and get an address to pick up the truck. Each time I encountered a huffy, impatient representative who said (Each Time!) "you have a reservation; don't worry about it; we'll call you the night before and let you know where to pick it up..."
On the day of the move, with all my belongings in boxes and new tenants waiting to move in behind me, U-Haul still had not called to tell me where to pick the truck up. When we finally got through (it was a Sunday and most local offices were closed), we were told that there were no trucks available.
When my credit card bill came in a few weeks later, there was the $5 "convenience" charge.
Well, I scrambled to borrow trucks from all my friends and eventually made the move, and after several calls and emails, got my $5 back. But it was the hardest I've ever worked for $5 in my life!

News flash, Price has gone from 169 early bird to 179 early bird for TV package but that includes Broadband also from my understanding.
And for Broadband alone, it is 179 for all teams, and 109 for choice(which lets you pick 7 teams to follow).
Anyway, I have the TV portion and Pre-Season begins soon, Tuesday my Rox start with orlando.
So anyone getting it or heck Ill ask, anyone need access to the broadband part?

Student Life
Although UNCG offers more than 100 outstanding academic programs, there's more to college than hitting the books. Here's a look at what UNCG has to offer students outside of class.
Student organizations
With 200 clubs and organizations, it's easy to get involved at UNCG. Student-run organizations offer a variety of athletic, cultural, educational, political, religious, and social experiences.
A supportive campus community
Students often say that UNCG doesn't feel like a big school because of the friendly campus atmosphere. It's a place where people know each other by name and stop to say hello. The student body is diverse, with a 33% minority enrollment and students from across the country and around the world.
Learning through service
"Service" is the university's motto—and a way of life at UNCG. Students team up to serve the community through service-learning projects, student organizations, and living-learning communities. The Office of Leadership and Service-Learning helps students match their interests with community needs.
Sports and recreation
UNCG's 17 Division I athletic teams compete in NCAA Division I (Southern Conference).
Men's teams: baseball, basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, tennis, indoor track, and track and field
Women's teams: basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, indoor track, track and field, and volleyball
Intramural sports such as basketball, flag football, indoor soccer, and sand volleyball are very popular at UNCG. So are club sports, including rugby, equestrian, fencing, and Ultimate Frisbee, just to name a few.
UNCG's Student Recreation Center offers a three-court gym; an indoor track; an exercise room with computerized exercise bikes, stair climbers, and weight machines; a free weight room; six racquetball courts; an aerobics studio; and an indoor climbing wall. The Outdoor Adventures Program offers rock climbing, rafting, hiking, canoeing, kayaking, and caving trips.
Aside from all of the opportunities at UNCG, the City of Greensboro has an outstanding parks and recreation system that includes 170 parks, gardens, and facilities.
Arts at UNCG
The School of Music, Theatre & Dance offers outstanding productions and recitals throughout the year. For those who wish to perform, there are student organizations such as Prime Movers (dance), jazz ensembles, and singing groups. Performance venues include the historic UNCG Auditorium, Taylor Theatre, Brown Building, the Music Building, and the Dance Theatre.
The Weatherspoon Art Museum houses one of the finest collections of modern and contemporary art in the Southeast - right on campus! Students can also find galleries in the Gatewood Studio Arts Building and the Elliott University Center.
Living on campus
Why do four out of five freshmen decide to live on campus at UNCG? Maybe it's the convenience of living in a residence hall, where you are close to your classes, dining facilities, and campus activities. Or maybe it's because meeting people is so easy when you live on campus.
A variety of residential colleges encourage students and faculty to teach and learn about the world around them in innovative ways.
UNCG's newest housing option, Spartan Village, is apartment-style housing available to students located along Lee Street near the Lofts on Lee graduate student housing. Learn more about UNCG's traditional-style, suite, and apartment options on the Housing & Residence Life site.
Campus dining options
UNCG's main dining hall, Fountain View Dining, is located within Moran Commons and offers all-you-care-to-eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
There are several food courts on campus as well:
- The EUC Food Court is located in the Elliott University Center (main level). It features Papa John's, Chick-fil-A, Salsarita's, Thai Garden Express, Ghassan's subs and kabobs, and more.
- Spartan's Place (EUC lower level) offers Subway, Wild Greens, and Jamba Juice.
- The lower level of Moran Commons includes a Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, and Wing Street.
- The Spartan Market is on the first floor of the main dining hall and includes Taco Bell, Pizza Hut and Wing Street.
- The Bryan Food Court is on the lower level of the Bryan School of Business & Economics. It offers Au Bon Pain soups, bagels, and sandwiches.
For those on the go, there are three convenience stores on campus and a popular coffee shop next to the bookstore in the EUC.
Jefferson Suites offers a Bojangles' restaurant.
Dining Services offers a variety of meal plans to meet the needs of students. Visit the Dining Services site for details.
Watch Our Video
We're the Spartans UNCG's spirit of self-discovery energizes our students and faculty and inspires them to do big things.

Baltimore County News
— January Blizzard Most Costly in County History
Baltimore County Executive Kevin Kamenetz announced that in the wake of the heaviest – and most costly – single snowstorm in the County's history, crews and equipment are ready to tackle tonight's forecasted snow, and salt supplies are replenished with final deliveries taking place today. The Kamenetz administration increased salt storage capacity by 20,000 tons this year, bringing the total to 80,000 tons of salt stored in 15 salt barns around the County.
The Baltimore County Bureau of Highways crews and contractors will be working around the clock tonight, and for as long as is needed to clear roads for safe travel.
Winter Storm Jonas Was the Costliest Single Snowstorm in County's History
January's blizzard brought not just the highest snow accumulations on record, it also topped the charts in terms of the cost of snow removal for a single storm in Baltimore County history. The County has tallied the total storm expenses at $9.4 million dollars. This eclipses the 2010 twin snowstorms, which cost $4 million and $7 million individually.
It costs approximately $54,000 per hour to plow snow from Baltimore County's 8,742 County-maintained roads and approximately $109,000 per hour to spread salt.
This storm has exceeded the $6 million "placeholder" figure the County listed in the Fiscal Year 2016 operating budget for storm operations. The County routinely transfers funds into this budget line item from undesignated surplus when needed to cover additional costs for snow removal.
"It is important to keep in mind that this $6 million figure is simply a starting point," said Baltimore County Executive Kevin Kamenetz. "We will allocate whatever is needed to ensure public safety for the remainder of the winter. Whatever Mother Nature throws at us, we will handle."
County Reviewing Communications Protocols for Major Storms
While feedback from County residents has been overwhelmingly positive regarding the job that Baltimore County crews did in removing this historic snowfall, one concern that did arise was the need to increase capacity for customer service calls during storm emergencies. Kamenetz said he has tasked his key staffers with recommending technical and other improvements to enhance the County's customer service in times of emergency. He hopes to have those recommendations within the next month.
County Provides Storm Updates on Website and Social Media
Residents and the travelling public can get updated information about Baltimore County's snow removal operations and road conditions on the County website and on Twitter.
The County website provides the latest on road conditions, current plowing operations, winter storm tips and more at the Snowfighter web page at baltimorecountymd.gov/snowfighter, which also includes Twitter updates from Baltimore County Emergency Management. These updates are also available on Twitter by using our Twitter handle, @bacoemergency.
The County Snowfighter web feature provides a link to live traffic camera feeds from the Maryland Department of Transportation's Coordinated Highways Action Response Team (CHART). It also offers a link to the County's list of road closures, which provides details on roads that are currently closed due to repairs, accidents, weather or other hazards. This list is updated frequently, so we recommend that people check back often for the latest status. State roads and interstates are not included. For information on state roads, please see the Maryland Department of Transportation's travel advisories and road closures web page at http://www.chart.md.gov/TravInfo/Default.aspx.

Recommendations from the County Fire Marshall and Building Engineer…
- Avoid walking under awnings and other lightweight canopies.
- Make sure you are able to open your exterior doors in the event of an emergency. You may want to keep storm doors in the open position to avoid these outward swinging doors being blocked by deep snow. Try slightly opening your exterior doors to see that they operate easily.
- Watch for overhanging snow and ice that may become dislodged and fall suddenly.
- Avoid being under skylights where possible.
- Clear roof drainage areas of ice and snow to avoid back up of water into down spouts that could cause ice/snow damming of roofs and gutters.
- Maintain a path from the exterior exit doors so that you can move to a safe distance from your house in case of fire.
- Check smoke alarms and carbon monoxide-detectors for proper operation.
- Check on elderly neighbors and relatives.
- If you have concerns about the safety of your home, then relocate to a safe structure. Plan ahead with a nearby neighbor to assist in relocating to another nearby home/building.
