THURSDAY, JULY 31- 10:33 PM
Yes, it’s been awhile.
I’ve been trying to rest up during the summer months, but unfortunately, there’s been no time for rest!
Big news in our office is that we filled the position of Marketing Director. Reggie Garrett, who played basketball for Seton Hall from 1997-2001, will officially take the job on August 11. He is coming to us after a successful two-year stop at Virginia. I am personally looking forward to working with him as the season gets underway. Read more about him and make sure you say hello when he arrives on West End.
Second, the most emails I’ve received this summer have had to do with phase 1 of the facility upgrades. Well, I’ve finally posted an update. Check out the photo gallery (below) with notes next to each picture detailing the progress.

Also, Wes Whaley from our video department was gracious enough to grab some video footage of the facilities last week. Here are some free clips (thanks Wes!).

Oh, and find out everything you need to know about the renovations at Facilities Upgrade Central. You can help fund this project by calling the National Commodore Club at 615.322.4114.
Finally, I’ll leave you with one video of the day.
Since football practice is just upon us, I can’t help to feel like I should be Dancin’ on the Ceiling.
A couple of notes I jotted down after watching this classic video:
1 – I always think of Jamiroquai’s Virtual Insanity video as one of the videos that had an impact on some gravity-defying images in music. But Lionel Richie was ahead of the game with this song. (And yes, I had to look up the correct spelling for Jamiroquai)
2 – I love Lionel and celebrate his entire catalog, but it’s apparent he is a great singer…and not really a good dancer. He has as many moves as I do (three for the record).
3 – I also love cheesy 80’s choreography, especially the full hand circles by Lionel’s friends starting at 0:27.
4 – Everytime they climb the walls, I turn my head to that position to view them right-side up. (Am I the only one dumb enough to do this?)
5 – “Say What?” (3:31 point)… “Can’t Stop Now!”
6 – And finally, there’s a keytar. Enough said.
