Share your CAB meeting reflections

CEM — Thu, 21 Feb 2008 04:57:24 -0800

I want to thank all of you who came to the CAB meeting tonight. I cannot tell you how wonderful it was to see your faces and hear your thoughts.

I see some people already made post-CAB comments in the previous post, so I imagined others would follow suit, and I wanted to make a place for all the post-CAB comments. So feel free to share your impressions, feelings, thoughts in this post.

I am sure Marc will write something to you tomorrow.

2/13 I read the news today, oh boy...

CEM — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 15:47:32 -0800

Big news out today. Looks like Maryland will have two new faces in our Congressional delegation (unless Wayne Gilchrist and Albert Wynn choose to run as Independents and win).

What are your thoughts? This could be the first competitive general election the Eastern Shore has seen in a couple decades. Does a Democrat have a chance on the Shore or is state senator Andy Harris going to sweep into office? What about Republican challengers to Donna Edwards?And of course, Obama wins in Maryland. Did you vote yesterday? I am still registered in Worcester County. I tried to travel home yesterday to vote. I meant to get an absentee ballot, but in the craziness that was my life the past two weeks, I plumb forgot. So I set out for Ocean City at 3:30 yesterday. I hit a wall of traffic several miles from the Bay Bridge and sat there until 6 pm, at which point I realized there was no chance I was going to make it home in time to vote. I won't make the same mistake in November!

This is what we had planned to be discussing for the noon hour on the Steiner Show today. Since we're not there, give us your thoughts HERE.

11/6 College Gender Gap

CEM — Tue, 06 Nov 2007 22:38:59 -0800

Thirty years ago, male students were in the majority on college campuses. Today women are outnumbering men at colleges and universities. While the number of women is increasing; educators are asking where have the boys gone? There's been a significant drop in the number of men applying and attending college which is baffling educators.
