The Chair

I am delighted that the GradComD blog is up and running. This is great opportunity for the Department, faculty, students and alumni. Having a site for the easy exchange of information and ideas brings all of us closer. It puts our dialogue into real time. Spontaniety always heightens energy. I am looking forward to ensuing lively entries.

This is, however, an official Pratt effort supported by the Institute and GradComD. Consequently, thoughts, opinions, images, etc., expressed on and contained in the blog need to be appropriately professional. Each of us needs to exercise a degree of self-censorship. The sensibilities of others need to be observed. Professor Dolle is the faculty advisor and Professor Klinkowstein has volunteered to provide technical assistance. The faculty with the CCinform staff will provide oversight.

Thanks to Eliot Gerard and Albena Petrus, specifically, and to the CCinform staff for their efforts, time and work in making this happen. Best regards
--J. Roger Guilfoyle
