Few attend forum By Julie A. Linden Daily Campus Staff Press outnumbered the public at yesterday's forum concerning the presidential search, as four students showed up to give their opinions about what UConn's next president should be like. Richard Bachu, executive assistant to President John T. Castccn III, was also in attendance. Christine Young, a senior associate at the Academic Search Consultation Service, answered questions and took notes at the forum. She and Ronald Stead, director of the consulting firm, are on campus for two days to speak with student groups, faculty, staff, deans and vice presidents. Young said they would also meet with both governmental and non-governmental concerns outside UConn. The consultants have been hired by UConn's board of trustees to aid the presidential search committee. Although the consultants' visit to campus was announced Tuesday, April 24, the only publicity for yesterday's forum was an article in Thursday's Daily Campus, Bachu said. Stead was not at yesterday's forum as originally planned because the consultants' schedule was still being developed and he was meeting with another group during that time, Young said. Eddie Woods, president of the Black Students' Association, focused on minority issues. He said he wanted UConn to create a See page 4 Polhill finally —Kevin Fraser/The Daily Campus home Eileen McGann and Brian Mitchell sit by Mirror Lake yesterday afternoon ANDREWS AIR FORCE attempting to write music to a poem "Piece of Mind", written by McGann.

  • Songwriter Session – Don’T Just Tap Your Foot, Tap Your Creativity
    Plenary: Songwriter Session – Don’t Just Tap Your Foot, Tap Your Creativity Presented By: Gary Burr Musician, Songwriter, Producer Nashville, TN Don Henry Singer, Songwriter Nashville, TN Jim Phtoglo Singer, Songwriter Nashville, TN Victoria Shaw Singer, Songwriter Nashville, TN Presented at: ACLEA 53rd Mid-Year Meeting January 28th – January 31st, 2017 Nashville, Tennessee Gary Burr Musician, Songwriter, Producer Nashville, TN “…But the guitarist always writes the songs…” That’s what they said in Gary’s first band. So, following in the footsteps of his heroes John Lennon and Roger McGuinn, a writer was born. After years of hard work and hard writing, he got his first break in 1982 with Juice Newton’s “Love’s Been a Little Bit Hard on Me.” With a hit under his belt he started writing in earnest, getting cuts from such talents as the Oak Ridge Boys and Conway Twitty. After a brief time on a solo career and album, Gary took over for Vince Gill as the lead‐singer for the band Pure Prairie League. In the late 80’s, feeling that he’d done all he can from Connecticut, Gary decided to move to Nashville, and a better move is hard to make. It didn’t take long for Gary to become one of Country Music’s most sought‐after writers, having hits with Randy Travis, Reba McEntire, Patty Loveless, Garth Brooks, and many more. Burr has been awarded ‘Songwriter of the Year’ on three separate occasions by three different organizations: Billboard, Nashville Songwriter’s Association International, and ASCAP and has written 14 Number One songs.

These events signify steps in a family’s journey with us which eventually culminate into a new mortgage-free home. In light of the coronavirus pandemic, in keeping consistent with our mission and values, we knew we needed to find a way to hold these meaningful events, even if it looks a little different than before. Our team got together and found new and responsible ways to honor our veterans while maintaining the integrity and tradition of our four signature events. U.S. Marine Sgt. T.J.

  • Affordable Housing for Low and Moderate Income Households
    Executive Summary AP‐05 Executive Summary ‐ 24 CFR 91.200(c), 91.220(b) 1. Introduction Beginning in fiscal year 1995, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) required local communities and states to prepare a Consolidated Plan in order to receive federal housing and community development funding. A Consolidated Plan is required of any city, county or state that receives federal block grant funding for housing and community development funding, including the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG). Consolidated Plans are required to be prepared every three to five years; updates are required annually. The purpose of the Consolidated Plan is: 1. To identify city, county or state housing and community development (including neighborhood and economic development) needs, priorities, goals and strategies; and 1. To stipulate how funds will be allocated to housing and community development activities. This report is the 2015 Annual Action Plan for the City, the fourth annual update to the 2012 ‐ 2016 Five ‐ Year Consolidated Plan for the City of Nampa. The report details how Nampa proposes to spend CDBG funds in the Consolidated Plan 2015 program year (PY). The Program Year for the City is October 1 through September 30. 2. Summarize the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan This could be a restatement of items or a table listed elsewhere in the plan or a reference to another location. It may also contain any essential items from the housing and homeless needs assessment, the housing market analysis or the strategic plan. The primary resources used to fulfill the goals of the Five‐Year Strategic Plan and the 2015 Action Plan is HUD block grant funding.
