During the holidays, a hospital is the last place you want to be.
Fortunately, the young patients at Kaiser Hospital in Santa Clara learned that Christmastime can still be magical when Santa and his friends come to visit you!
On December 11, Santa Claus, aka Police Chief Sellers, made his way through the Pediatric Unit, visiting patients and their families while distributing gifts. The children received presents, courtesy of the Santa Clara Fire Department's Toys for Tots program and assistance from The Optimist Club of Santa Clara. "Many patients cannot be home for the holidays. It was nice bringing some normalcy to their lives while they are hospitalized," commented Santa.

Tennessee Slugs Its Way Past East Tennessee State, 15-7
Wednesday, April 17, 2002Knoxville, Tenn. (April 17, 2002) - East Tennessee State's baseball team got off to a fast start, getting an early lead against Tennessee, but the Bucs could not hang on as the Vols took a 15-7 win in baseball action at Lindsey Nelson Stadium. The loss dropped the Bucs to 14-21 on the season, while Tennessee improved to 19-20. East Tennessee State got things going early, striking for a pair of runs in the first. Matt Traylor (Knoxville, Tenn.) rapped the first pitch of the game into the corner in right for a double. Jeremy Terry (Cumberland, Ky.) bunted to the third base side and UT's pitcher, Jay Sadlowe, slipped attempting to field it, resulting in a single for Terry. After Terry stole second, Caleb Moore (Knoxville, Tenn.) delivered both runners with a double down the line in left for a 2-0 ETSU lead. A leadoff triple from John Gorton (Hinsdale, N.H.) in the second wound up giving the Bucs another run when he scored on a groundout by Justin Clear (Lafollette, Tenn.). Tennessee broke through with a run in the second. With two outs, Matt Sternberg doubled and came home on a single off the bat of Dennis Gomez to cut the lead to 3-1. The Vols took the lead in the fourth, loading the bases with one out off of ETSU starter Jackson Simerly ( Bluff City, Tenn.). With one run already in, Chad LaGate delivered a two-run single before the final run of the inning came home on a sac fly by Nick Crowe. ETSU got one back in the fifth when Clear led off with a single, moved to third on Traylor's second double of the game and then scored on a ground out by Terry. Tennessee put another four-spot on the board in the fifth on three hits, with the big blow a two-run home run off the bat of Dennis Gomez that greeted Buccaneer reliever Trevor Smith (Newport, Tenn.) that put the game out of reach for ETSU. The Vols added three more in the sixth and seventh as the Vols went on to pound out 18 hits in the contest and scoring in every inning but the first, third and eighth. Traylor led the ETSU offense, slugging three doubles in four at-bats. Terry and Moore each drove in a pair of runs on the night for the Bucs. Savilla led Tennessee, going 4-for-5 with a triple and three stolen bases. Simerly took the loss for ETSU, giving up six earned runs and nine hits in 4.2 innings. Sadlowe picked up his second win of the season for the Vols, allowing four runs and seven hits in five innings, striking out five with no walks. Next on the schedule for the Bucs will be the first of a three-game Southern Conference series with the College of Charleston at Cardinal Park on Friday, April 19 at 7:00 p.m.

Psyadon Pharmaceuticals has spent nine months working to enroll the 18 patients it needs for its phase 3 clinical trial involving its treatment for Tourette syndrome.
The Germantown company's candidate, ecopipam, also targets Lesch-Nyhan disease, a genetic disorder that affects as many as 1,000 Americans, disrupting their ability to walk and causing self-mutilation.
Although Psyadon usually is not directly involved in its clinical trials — it usually uses companies called contract research organizations, which conduct trials for drug makers — it often tracks disease-related patient advocacy groups and sometimes uses this information to raise awareness of the trial, said CEO Richard Chipkin.
Psyadon's experiences may be different from those of other Maryland bioscience companies that focus on larger patient populations, but the challenge of finding subjects for clinical trials remains.
Almost half — 48 percent — of clinical trial sites miss their enrollment goals. The result is often longer study time lines and higher costs for companies, according to data from the Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development. The report was based on more than 150 clinical studies at 16,000 sites in different countries.
Enrollment procedures and challenges differ from site to site, depending on the companies involved and the nature of the trial, said Judith Britz, executive director of the Maryland Biotechnology Center in Baltimore and an industry veteran. She said in cases of rare diseases, such as Lesch-Nyhan, the company performing the trial might need to use more sites than companies studying more common diseases.
"There's always the human factor," Britz said, adding that sometimes subjects need to understand that even if a particular treatment may not benefit them, it may help others in the future.
People managing trial sites might overestimate the number of patients or have patients on medication who cannot participate, said Taryn Joswick, vice president of clinical development for Sucampo Pharmaceuticals in Bethesda. She said some companies prepare for this by having more sites ready than they actually need.
Sucampo has been involved in clinical trials in various phases, with most focusing on its treatments for gastrointestinal disorders. The company has sold its constipation drug Amitiza for several years in the U.S. and just this month launched sales of its glaucoma treatment Rescula.
Joswick said patient enrollment also depends on whether a trial is targeting patients who are being treated by a physician for a disease such as cystic fibrosis — such patients could learn about trials from their provider — or self-treating patients, whom the company would need to reach through advertising and other ways.
Companies performing trials also need to decide whether they need to prepare a patient recruitment plan in advance or wait until they hit a roadblock, she said.
"It's all about finding the right site with the direct access to the patient being sought," Joswick said. "It becomes an art at some point."
When it encounters enrollment problems through its contract research organizations, MedImmune, the biotech giant in Gaithersburg, reviews its trial requirements to ensure they're not too difficult to satisfy, Ed Bradley, senior vice president of oncology innovative medicines, said in an email to The Gazette. The company also uses newsletters to keep involved medical professionals posted about trial progress.
Companies also can work with groups that recruit volunteers to suit different subject populations for trials, said Ginette Serrero, CEO of A&G Pharmaceuticals in Columbia. A&G focuses on breast cancer treatments and has a clinical trial that will follow up to 250 women during five years of their treatment.
Serrero recommended groups such as the Love/Avon Army of Women, a partnership between the Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation and the Avon Foundation. But she also cautioned that such groups come with price tags, so companies must weigh the benefit of using them versus the cost.
Regulatory demands have increased the size of clinical trials, said Salvatore Alesci, vice president of scientific affairs for Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America in Washington, D.C.
He said clinical trials often suffer from a lack of awareness and connections among non-major medical centers. Alesci's trade group works on these problems through its Research in Your Backyard campaign, which speaks to the economic impact of clinical trials in each state, and participation in the National Clinical Trial Network, which builds databases among medical centers.
"We can't do this by ourselves," he said. "It's about creating a culture."
The University of Maryland, College Park, has its Center for Excellence in Regulatory Science and Innovation, funded by the Food and Drug Administration, to help develop curricula for training advanced methods on running clinical trials and serving as a neutral party to help sort out issues where sites only need to tweak aspects of a trial, rather than go back to the start, Britz said.
One of the reasons for low enrollment could be a reliance on conventional recruitment methods instead of adopting modern techniques such as social media, the Tufts Center report suggested.
Britz described social media as a creative solution.
Joswick said social media has potential in aiding recruitment, but companies are still unclear on whether it returns its costs.
"I haven't seen many great success stories," she said.
While Rachel King, CEO of GlycoMimetics in Gaithersburg, sees the potential for social media, she said companies also must be wary of FDA regulations that control what can be said about a product. GlycoMimetics is developing a treatment for vaso-occlusive crisis in sickle cell disease.
Psyadon uses the same ethical committee that reviews its clinical trials when reviewing its trial advertisements, Chipkin said.
There are no regulations specific to the use of social media for trial recruitment, but the FDA requires that an institutional board review and have the authority to approve all research activities, including direct advertising for study subjects, FDA spokeswoman Michelle Bolek wrote in an email to The Gazette.
"FDA expects [review boards] to review the advertising to assure that it is not unduly coercive and does not promise a certainty of a cure beyond what is outlined in the consent and protocol," she said.
While MedImmune does not use social media in recruiting, it monitors patient advocacy groups or specific disease interest groups that sometimes post information about its trials on their websites, Bradley said.

Lewis Hamilton has revealed he had to abort his final lap in qualifying as it was "almost impossible" to see the car in front....
Lewis Hamilton has revealed he had to abort his final lap in qualifying as it was "almost impossible" to see the car in front.
The Mercedes driver and his team-mate Nico Rosberg entered qualifying as the two drivers to beat having topped all the practice sessions.
And although Rosberg had the edge in a delayed Q1, it was Hamilton who came to the fore in the second segment.
Moving into the third, the British driver ventured out on the full wet Pirelli tyres and clocked a 1:59.431 to hold the advantage ahead of Sebastian Vettel.
Coming down to the final run, with the rain still coming down, Hamilton backed off as he was struggling to see the track.
With everyone else also finding it difficult, Hamilton held onto pole position by 0.055s over Vettel.
"I'm really happy with how well we've done over the weekend," he said.
"Today was incredible, just how much it rained before qualifying - how heavy was the rain?
"It was tricky out there for everyone because at the end it was almost impossible to see.
"I mean, I couldn't do my last lap, I just couldn't see a thing behind [Nico] Hulkenberg.
"I couldn't see where the track went, didn't know where the corners where, when to brake. And when I was to start the lap I couldn't see where Fernando [Alonso] was behind me so it was impossible to try and get a gap, so I had to bail out."
As for his goal for Sunday's Malaysian GP, Hamilton, who retired from the season-opening Australian GP, says "the priority is to bag as many points as possible.
"We've got a great opportunity, a great car and a team that is performing fantastically right now. Fingers crossed we can see ourselves through to the finish line."

I would like to compute OG for some recipe. To do that I used to have a table, but I do not find it anynmore. Is there a table to calculate initial gravity of various ingredients in metric units?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Homebrewing Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for dedicated home brewers and serious enthusiasts. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Instead of a table, you could use an free online calculator such as Beer Calculus to calculate the OG, along with other things about the recipe.
There are also several offline software programs that do this such as BeerSmith, although it is not free.
I find myself using this malt chart regularly. It lists potential gravity, yeild, need to mash, SRM, and flavor/profile characteristics.
John Palmer's book "How to Brew" offers a table of typical Malt yields including some of his own research on steeping yields. I enjoying calculating my recipes by hand rather then using brewing software, so I find the yield table helpful! Info can be found here.

Does Elle Macpherson ever age? Well, judging by her new cover of Australian Harper's Bazaar, it's clear that answer is no!
The supermodel looks fabulous at 49 while recreating her seductive 1994 Playboy pose. The blond beauty was only 30 when she posed for the lady mag and nearly two decades later, she's still as sexy as ever.
So how has she managed to maintain her youthful look after all these years? She told the magazine that embracing the process and is the key.
"You have to constantly listen to your body," she advised. "You can't sit there thinking, 'All this used to work.' You're new and fresh and different every day. Resist it and it becomes really tedious. Embrace it and it's a constant renewing process — holistic, a total intelligence. It's about being present in your life."

I have plenty of land that is suitable for growing hops; protected from wind, well drained, and receives lots of full sun. I'm not sure what variety would do well in western North Carolina and is worthwhile to grow. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

I'd say you'll have a hard time with any variety you decide to grow there. Hops grow best around the 45th parallel and the farther away from that you are, the more problems you'll have. That said, pick a hardy American variety like Cascade for best results and avoid British or continental varieties.

Fall Baseball Practice Especially Crucial for Bucs
Monday, October 22, 2001by Billy Dixon, Kingsport Times-News JOHNSON CITY - Fall is traditionally football season, but the autumn months also are important for college baseball teams, which are allowed four weeks of practice by the NCAA. At East Tennessee State, fall baseball practice this year is especially crucial. Bucs coach Tony Skole has brought in a top-50 ranked recruiting class for the second year in a row, and those freshmen need the time to acclimate themselves to a different level of play. "We're younger this year than last," said Skole, who fielded the youngest team in the Southern Conference last year. "We've got 13 freshmen, but they are very talented." This is Skole's third year as skipper of the Bucs. For the first two seasons, he had to be patient. "The first two years, we had to stress fundamentals and that's about all we got done," Skole said. "There's not been as much of that this year. We've been able to go out and play a lot of intrasquad games. That's something we needed in the past, but have been able to do this year." The four-week practice session is winding down for the Bucs, who are playing the last games in the Blue-Gold World Series on Thursday and Friday. The losers of the series are made to run in the Jingle Bell 10K Run come December. While the Bucs are extremely young in places, there is a core of veteran players capable of leading this team to the top of the Southern Conference. Senior pitcher Reid Casey tops the list of returnees. Casey is widely considered to have some of the best stuff in all of college baseball, but has had trouble winning games the last two years. Skole attributes Casey's previous tough luck to lack of depth in the bullpen. With every pitcher back from last year, plus the addition of several more, that problem has been remedied. "He has lost a lot of games late because we've had to decide whether to stay with a tired Reid Casey, or come with someone out of the pen that we might not have the most confidence in," Skole said. "Almost any coach in the country would stay with Reid, but its not always worked out. "We've got more depth this year and it's quality depth. We have 10 to 15 arms that I feel comfortable with at any time." Returning outfielder Kirk Keithley has pro potential, according to Skole. "Kirk is the best of all the returners," said Skole. "He stayed here over the summer and came into fall practice tremendously strong and a lot faster. He may be one of the fastest players in the country." With considerable speed from top to bottom in the projected lineup, the Bucs will play a different style of ball this year. Last season's squad relied on the home run abilities of graduated players like Andy Baxter and Nathan Copeland, both of whom played pro ball last summer. "We've stolen more than 60 bases this fall," Skole said. "We're not going to have to sit back and wait on the long ball. We have the ability to make things happen. We won't hit as many home runs, but our run production will not drop off at all." The change in game plan will better suit the style of successful teams in the Southern Conference. While Cardinal Park is home run friendly, Riley Park in Charleston, S.C. (home of the 2001 SoCon tournament) is better suited to speed-based teams. In fact The Citadel, which plays its home games at Riley Park, has been among the nation's leaders in stolen bases for several years. To help the hitters get stronger and develop, Skole has mandated the use of wooden bats for the entire fall season. The batters struggled early, but have improved the team batting average by almost 100 points in the last two weeks. Jeremy Terry and Ryan Hyder will provide defensive stability in the middle infield, with Brandon Cross at third. Brian Crouse will patrol the outfield. After that, the young guys have free reign to win starting spots. One of the most impressive freshmen in fall practice has been Caleb Moore, who is hitting .367 and runs well. Moore may see duty as starting catcher and weekend pitcher. Matt Traylor has the jump on another starting outfield spot, while several other newcomers are in the mix. Figure in a predominately sophomore pitching staff consisting of Josh Kite, Tim Turner, Donnie Sharp and Matt Hensley, and the Bucs have all the tools to compete now, instead of a year or two down the road. "Our pitching is so much better. Better than ever," said Skole. "The defense continues to be solid and we our team speed is tremendous. I can't pinpoint any area where we've not improved this fall. Even the weather has been great. It all depends on what kind of year our veterans have. If they play well, anything is possible."

Nice Rug
It was actually thicker than I expected after some of the other reviews. I had bought a underlayment for it to keep it from bunching up on top of my carpet and ended up not needing it. Color matched picture.Read More
Good rug
This is a good rug. It's low pile and wears nicely. We've had it for almost 4 years and the only problem we've had is some slight curling at the edges but after putting a book on it for a few days it was flattened out again.Read More
Great rug!
Not plush but very beautiful and functional. Love the overdyed look.Read More
Teal/Grey Rug
I got this beautiful rug for my living room, where I have a charcoal sofa, teal chair and teal and black accent furniture. It looks beautiful.Read More
Great Rug, Really Good Price
This rug looks exactly as pictured. The only reason I gave it four stars and not five is because I wish it was a little softer, but it's thick and feels good underfoot. It arrived quickly and I love the color.Read More
Love this rug!
I love the overdyed rug look and was thrilled to find the color I wanted in a fiber that will be easy to clean when my grandchildren join us for dinner. I was concerned about the edges of this rug, but it is nicely bound and looks to be much more expensive than it is. I have only had it a few weeks, but see no signs of pilling or curling corners. I think it is stunning and highly recommend it.Read More
Beautiful rug
This teal and grey rug is just beautiful in person. The color is a little more saturated in person, but I thought this was a positive. We have a dog and 2 long-haired cats, and I'm happy to say that this rug doesn't show dirt or fur. Also, this rug doesn't shed at all. I've purchased some very nice rugs that have shed for weeks and weeks regardless of how many times I vacuumed. This carpet doesn't shed at all. It really is pretty and was very affordable.Read More
Great rug!
I would buy this again in a heartbeat. Was not real sure that it would have enough Teal in it but it does, and works perfect with fabric I had bought to go with it in our master bedroom re-do. If I was going to put it down in anyway it would be that it is a little thin but, for the price it was a steal.Read More
Not as Pictured
This rug wasn't necessarily bad --- it is just not at all like it is pictured. It looks in the picture like it is dark teal with some lighter washed out areas of teal. Not the case. It actually has all kinds of colors and it is more like a colorful design. And the teal is not a pretty rich color like it looks. Overstock was great in their customer service regarding my return, but I wouldn't recommend this product if you are wanting it as pictured.Read More
Gorgeous color
Beautiful rug at a great price! Great colors: Teal, turquoise, dark grey, a lighter grey and a hint of almost violet (but you have to really look to see it, it doesn't stand out as an accent color). Nicely bound edges also in teal. Not very thick so if you're using it for a living area do purchase a quality pad; since this is for my dining room I might not bother. Literally everywhere else I saw this rug (it's Sphinx Revival 500H2 FYI) in this size had it for $*** so this is a great deal!Read More

Is there a coordinating runner available?
Hello tj4oh, I'm sorry I couldn't find that we have a matching runner to this. If you scroll to the middle of the page it will show you the matching rugs we have for this. Have a great day!
Is this Rug washable ?
Thank you ergon for the opportunity to help you with the Teal/ Grey Area Rug (7'10 x 10'10). All though this rug is washable we recommend that you don't put it in a washing machine because of its sheer size. It would have to hand cleaned or a carpet cleaner or professionally done. Thank you for shopping with us.
is this rug handmade? Where was it made?
I purchased one of these, I cannot tell if it is handmade per say, or from where, but it is a nice rug. Sorry I could not help you more
Thank you for your question. This rug is hand made in the USA.
Definitely not handmade but still a quality rug
How accurate is the color when compared to a computer monitor? The reviews are split right the middle. Half say exact and the other half says lighter. Thanks.
Its a true teal and on the darker rather than lighter side.
The color is exactly the color you see on the screen.
A little lighter but pretty close.
Do you have any 'guestimate' of how much it would cost to return a 7'10 x 10'10 rug? Via US mail or otherwise? I would really like to take a shot at this rug, but need to weigh my return options if the color doesn't work out in my room. Thanks!!
No idea. You're better off just asking them what 8 x 1 roll that weighs 40 lbs would cost to ship.
Thanks you for your question. Return shipping is calculated based on weight. This rug has a shipping weight of 32 pounds. The shipping cost will be calculated at the time the return is initiated. We have contracts with UPS to handle all of or shipping returns, however you also have the option to arrange your own return shipping with another carrier. If you find that to be more economical.
If you're worried about not liking this rug - don't! It's as pretty as the picture and the color is true. Good luck!
Do you have this or an other similar rugs in a 10 x 14?
We''re sorry, but we do not.
My room is only a few inches bigger than this rug each dimension. Size is approximate according to the description. How much can the actual size vary from the dimensions given? I want to be sure the rug will not be too big to fit.
The difference may only be an inch or two.
Pile height - under the product information one section says its less that .25 the other says pile height is .43 - which is it?
The pile height of this rug is 0.43 inches, as specified under the Product Details section.
Do you plan on restocking this item? I've wanted it for awhile and now that I have birthday money it's gone! Please tell me if you will be getting it in anytime in the next year or if I have to sadly look for something else.
We normally do not have that information ahead of time but I have sent an email to our supplier to see if I can find out for you. I will post an answer as soon as I receive one.
Wondering if this rug is teal or turquoise because it appears to lean towards turquoise
This rug appears to be a darker teal color.
How accurate are the colors in this photo. I don't see the grey that's mentioned.
Due to the difference of monitor colors, some rug colors may vary slightly. We try to represent all rug colors accurately. The gray seems to be a dark charcoal gray that is accented against the teal.
How do you clean this rug?
This rug can be cleaned with a vacuum.

Pedro the Lion was an indie rock band from Seattle, Washington. Singer-songwriter David Bazan formed the band in 1995 and represented its main creative force, backed by a varying rotation of collaborating musicians. T. W. Walsh is considered to be the sole official band member besides Bazan. In 2006, Bazan and Walsh split amicably and Pedro the Lion was dissolved as Bazan went solo. Releasing four full-length albums and five EPs over 11 years, the band was known for its first person narrative lyrics with political and religious themes. Pedro The Lion was managed by Bob Andrews at Undertow Music Collective.

First things first: The best microdwellers have zero earthly possessions. The apartment pictured above (via Inhabitat), perched at the top of a 1890s mansion in The Hague, Netherlands, gets it right: There's not a single Neiman Marcus catalog or George Foreman Grill in sight.
Photo via JellyWoo/Youtube
↑ The walls? They gotta move. It's Tiny Living 101, really. Take this 330-square-foot masterpiece in Hong Kong dreamed up by architect Gary Chang: Nearly every wall is on a track that allows them to slide across the room, revealing more living space and storage. For example, behind Chang's library wall is the linen closet wall, and behind the linen closet there's the bathtub/guest bedroom. It's a bit of genius that's got to be seen to be truly understood, so do check out the video.
Next: Rooms that do double-, triple-, quadruple-duty.
Photo via JellyWoo/Youtube
↑ Another feature prominent in Chang's convertible Hong Kong dwelling? Rooms that as serve more than one (and sometimes more than five or six) living areas. His tiny place brags 24 rooms. Above is the guest bedroom, which is just a mattress that can be pulled down over the bathtub. Said bathtub, friendly reminder, is behind the linen closet, which is behind the bookshelf. Seriously, this guy is a square-footage savant.
Next: A guest bed that rolls out from a desk.
Photo via Channel4News/Youtube
↑ Here's another guest bedroom option, this time from the ritzy flat designed by British entrepreneur Simon Woodroffe. The guest bed rolls out from a desk, Hey Arnold-style. Just be sure not to lean on the desk when you use it (read: just don't use it).
Next: A master bed that drifts down from the sky.
Photo via Dezeen
↑ Woodroffe also made it so the master bed floats down from the heavens, landing on the sunken living room.
Next: Storage in the floorboards.
Photo via Apartment Therapy
↑ Storage space is very often the first thing to go when downsizing. Luckily, one can always make like a rebellious teen and store small items beneath the floorboards. Fair warning: tearing up the floors (even for great things like extra storage) means probably forfeiting that security deposit.
Photo via Apartment Therapy
↑ When in doubt, turn it into a drawer. Obviously.
Next: A folding kitchen and breakfast nook.
Photo via Freshome
↑ This colorful abode in Warsaw, Poland, designed by Jakub Szczesny, the architect behind the thinnest house on the planet, is just 21.5 square meters (just over 230 square-feet). The highlight of the space, the folding kitchen and breakfast nook, looks great, though it's unclear how the table can be used without it flipping up again.
Next: Inspiration from an ironing board.
Resource FurniturePhoto via
↑ In this realm, furniture is only as great as its ability to disappear. Tables like these use fold-away mechanisms (the ironing-board approach) that make for easy storage in all of that, uh, storage space found in tiny apartments.
Next: Walls that curve outward.
Photo via Curbed
↑ When figuring out whether to rent a sardine can, be sure to keep in mind the curvature of the walls. A nice, convex set of walls like the ones in this mod microdwelling can make 270 square feet feel like a whopping 280 square feet.
Next: A shower stall with a toilet.

↑ Here's a technique borrowed from the world's thinnest house: if there's not enough space for a fancy-pants bathroom (the kind with room for a shower and a sink and a toilet) one can always make the whole room the shower stall. Sure, bathing each morning will be tricky to do without disintegrating all of the toilet paper, but the guy in the 4-feet-wide Keret house in Warsaw, Poland, presumably makes it work.

↑ And, when all else fails, it's totally OK to say "to hell with it" and get the Swiss army knife of stowaway furniture: the hammock. No one will judge.

Celebrating 100 years to the date since the first class met on campus, Radford University formally welcomed members of the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia (SCHEV) Tuesday as part of the Council's September meetings. The two-day session, which began Monday with a joint meeting with the Council of Presidents, was held in the College of Business and Economics building on the RU campus.
SCHEV, founded in 1956, is the Commonwealth's coordinating body for higher education and makes policy recommendations to the governor and the General Assembly.
Radford University President Penelope W. Kyle opened Tuesday's business meeting by updating SCHEV members on RU's recent accomplishments, including this year's record enrollment, and developments and goals for moving forward with current and new programs and campus infrastructure projects.
The president provided a brief history of RU and informed the gathering of the significance of the date in school history. "You are joining us for what is a centennial event for Radford University," Kyle proudly noted. "The school's very first session began 100 years ago to the day on September 17, 1913. You all are here to celebrate 100 years of education at Radford University," she proclaimed.
