The Return of SUNO

A week of registration...and a week of school...has come and gone. Miraculously, we have managed to get this school up and running...with classes at Sophie B. Wright, near Napoleon and St. Charles avenues...students, faculty and staff living in the Marriott New Orleans...and myself...working out of the Bacchus Room in the hotel.

Just got back from Baton Rouge getting my office equipment...work for us has ended in Baton Rouge...and as we await our trailers on the New Orleans lakefront...my anticipation is at a heightened level. The downside of this situation is the reality that many students, faculty and staff are no longer with us. I will be able to run down the numbers after registration closes and figures are set. The fourtenth day of school is the official day for declaring enrollment.

Our curriculum has been amended and several major courses of study have been eliminated. The most notable were our science majors...so all you alumni of SUNO with science degrees are special! Other majors simply lacked completers...the term bean counters use to indicate graduates who started at the institution they finish.

That's All For Now
