A new look for the new year!

Happy new year to all our faithful readers who doubtless have stayed tuned for nearly a month of inactivity!

You are rewarded with a fresh new look, and coming soon (thanks to occasional nudging by the Hawk) will be "the Campus Mawrtius Grad School Cheat Sheet," a handy collection of research tools available on the internet — just some of the tricks of this tricky trade.

A number of these resources require institutional subscription, which is identified by the IP address of the computer you use to log on. Ever the keen-minded helper, I've included special links for my BMC-ers for off-campus access.

That's just one of the things to look forward to in the new year.

I don't know what else there is, but we'll think of something.

And I'm sure Eric and I will have plenty to say about the APA convention (to which we'll be driving in the middle of the night Friday — in time to catch the final two days of papers and see Nick deliver an abbreviated version of his archaeology MA at the AIA).

Excelsior!
