Rollin' out 'The Scroll'

Several St. Thomas administrators, faculty and staff members have joined forces to publish The Scroll, a new blog for the university community.

The Scroll's purpose is to tell stories that reflect the university's mission and describe the good work of our students, faculty, staff, alumni and parents. The Scroll will be published once or twice a week.

The first item, posted today, is from Father Dennis Dease, president. Other regular contributors will be Father John Malone, vice president for mission and a business professor; Dr. Carol Bruess, communication and journalism professor; Tonia Jones, program manager in Multicultural Student Services; Dave Nimmer, professor emeritus; and Dr. Susan Alexander, executive adviser to Father Dease and an economics professor.

Guest contributions are welcome, as are responses to individual blog items written by regular contributors, and readers also can subscribe to The Scroll through an RSS feed. Details are in the editors' note in today's issue.
