University of Michigan Library and other interesting stories

You can tell a person is a "total nerd" when on the second day in a new town, they go to the local university library.

Yes that is me. Got up this morning on a sunny Ann Arbor day and
headed for the University of Michigan Graduate Library.

I am afraid I am getting "twitter boring" (no one is interested in the day-to-day details of my life).

Now here is an interesting story that does not involve me getting up in the morning: The Department of Defense is consolidating all its public relations activities into one body: the Defense Media Activity.



This means that the following bodies will be consolidated into one command:
the Soldiers Media Center, Naval Media Center, the Marine Corps News, Air Force News Service and the American Forces Information Service, Stars and Stripes newspaper, the Defense Information School.

Now here is where it gets interesting: all of these entitites (about 600+ people) will be based out of one facility they are building in Maryland (home sweet home).

Wow! That many pr people in one building. That should be a study by itself.

For job seekers, they are hiring:
