First of my course committees today.

Very similar to TheOldPlace. Although this one had a staff/student committee beforehand to air their grievances and problems. As ever these are supposed to be course related rather than pet niggles of specific issues, but as it's the only chance students get to bring things to the attention of the academics I don't blame them for taking it.

Much interest/disappointment in my short report on the delays to the extension (and thus continued lack of computing facilities given that we'll have nigh on 200 in here eventually). Much amusement at my description of knowing from day 1 of life here not to book the seminar rooms (as some have) for this week given we were supposed to open on Monday.
