Schedule outside activities away from the hottest part of the day, between 3 and 5 p.m.... Take numerous breaks and limit the duration as well." More tips: Facebook

Replacing Shorter's president Dr. Harold Newman:

-It indeed was fitting. As Dr. Harold E. Newman announced his plans to retire when a successor is found and seated, you could hear a student in a nearby room practicing the flute. The music went on, even as the university's leader announced plans to help Shorter's next steps after five dynamic years of growth and change.
