Miller Theater's Executive Director Heads West

George Steel, the executive director of Miller Theater, is packing his bags and heading for greener pastures, namely the Dallas Opera -- the $12 million budget of which is four times that of our Miller. Ah, well.

Best of luck in Texas, George Steel!

this has nothing to do with this article.

i can't believe the registrar did this: the class was originally scheduled for 10:35am, now its 7:45am! is that even legal?

Having worked with the scheduling division there are a few possibilities with that:

1) It's a mistake (they happen at the registrar...a lot)

2) Somebody forgot to file for a room at the first timeslot, and there were no more classrooms at the time.

3) Your teacher has a lot of pull and can call his/her own, non-traditional times for classes (yes, there are professors who can get this to happen).

Well at least it will be a very small class once everyone has a chance to switch out.
