Last Saturday, my husband and I went out for Dim Sum brunch at a local Chinese restaurant, where I received a rather on-point fortune cookie message.

How did the cookie know that it’s Inauguration and Owls Fest later this week, a time for us to celebrate and appreciate each other as a community? Or even that it’s October? Or that sometimes the best way through stressful times is to practice gratitude? I’m not sure, but since you didn’t subscribe for a daily affirmation blog, I’ll tie this back to the positioning work.

As I mentioned last post, I hope those of you who are not directly lending your assistance with the events this week can attend Inauguration and Owls Fest and see some of our new designs in action. There’s lots of fun swag available for attendees, too!

Meanwhile, we’re working ahead to pick up some of our many design projects for after this week is over. One of them is a complete redesign of the College PowerPoint template deck, which will be very helpful for those of you who present on behalf of the College regularly. (Here’s the current set of template decks if you haven’t seen them before.)

I’m interested to know what you might be looking for in a new PowerPoint template. Are there any specific functionalities or content slides you would find helpful? Let us know by filling out this quick four-question anonymous survey. The deck will be available online for anyone to download and use.

Thanks for your help. I’ll close the survey end of day on 10/24. Have a great week!
