Name-calling
Don't be confused if you can no longer find the Administration Building. The
big square building with the funny windows has been renamed the Fleming
Administration Building. The name was changed to honor former University
President Robben Fleming, now the head of the Public Broadcasting Co.
Fleming and his wife, Sally, were on hand last week to unveil the standard
blue-and-white University sign bearing the new name on Regents Plaza. Q
Today's weather
The outlook for today's weather is cooler temperatures with a high in the
60s and sunny skies.
