End Of The Semester
6. December 2007 by MrBobC.
Well folks, here we are, at the end of the semester. For me, that is today, but classes are not officially over until tomorrow (for those of you who have them). I don’t know about everyone else, but I’m glad to have one more semester down, because this means I have only one to go, as do most of my classmates here at BU in the MBA program that we started way back in August ‘06. Seems like so long ago, and yet at the same time it seems I find myself asking where the time went. I don’t know where it went, just that it’s gone, and we are all richer for the experience. I’ve decided to take advantage of the winter semester here through an International Business course, it’s only 12 classes at 3:15 each, four days per week for three weeks. We’ll see how that turns out. Until then, I wish everyone a very joyous holiday season, and I’ll see you all in January!

BU - Law School?
17. November 2007 by MrBobC.
BU is apparently planning on opening up a law school, joining UB and CUNY. This is a great idea because it adds to the availability of law schools at a decent price as well as being a midpoint between UB and CUNY. Having a law school at Binghamton will help keep people here for their education, as in fall 2006, 221 BU students were admitted to law schools, thus leaving Binghamton University. If BU had a law school, we could retain (I would hope) most of those students and get students from other colleges who have heard of Binghamton University, this most prestigious of public universities in New York. Of course, everything is still just talk and no real planning has been done. Although it is a magnificent idea, we’ll just have to wait and see what happens.http://pressconnects.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20071117/NEWS01/711170330
Our Local Astronaut, Doug Wheelock
7. November 2007 by MrBobC.
Life in Binghamton. Oxymoron? You be the judge. I’m Bob Sea, and I am enrolled in Binghamton University’s MBA program. We have some interesting things in Binghamton (and the surrounding areas). For instance, we have Doug Wheelock. Doug is an astronaut from Windsor, NY, near Binghamton. He arrived back on Earth today from space and is very safe. I will be doing a tribute to Doug, as my father and he were friends some years ago. Said tribute will be held at the Oakdale Mall in Johnson City, NY at 6:15PM on Monday, November 12th in front of JCPenney’s. The tribute will include a newly-fashioned song for the occasion, “Where Else But In America” and will be sung by me, Bob Sea, and the 4th and 5th grade Rainbow Chorus of the CR Weeks Elementary school (where Doug went) and will be telecast live on the WIVT Channel 34 news. Come on down and show your support for our local astronaut! More details on my website, http://www.bobsea.com. Doug Wheelock
