Mindy Markham to Present on Co-Parenting and Divorce 

Dr. Mindy Markham, assistant Family Studies and Human Services professor, has been selected to present to a group of mediators and social workers from across the state. She is to present on the topic of co-parenting and divorce on Friday, December 6. 

The season for final projects and presentations is upon us! Need a place to collaborate with classmates on a class project or group presentation? How about a distraction-free space for tutoring? The library now has TWO spaces for group projects and meetings! The Community Room is available on a walk-in and reservation basis and includes a large conference table seating eight people, as well as a podium and two flat-screen monitors for laptop hookup. The Group Study Room is available on a walk-in basis only and has seating for four people and a whiteboard. Reservations for the Community Room may be made in the library or through libhelp@ksu.edu. 

Allison Koehn, Washburn University Law School representative, will be on campus Wednesday, December 4th from 10:00am to 2:00pm in the Technology Center lobby to talk to students who are interested in attending law school. 

The schedule is already out for Spring 2014! It's never too early to start thinking about the research needs of you and your students for next semester! 

Are you teaching a new course?
Whether it's new to you or new to campus, we want to provide excellent resources for all classes so drop us a line if we're missing something from our stacks that your students will need to be successful. If you know what you need for the spring semester, let us know ASAP so we can order it and have it ready in time for the first day of classes. 

Are you working on new research?
Whether it's a literature review you're halfway through, or new research you're just beginning, the library would be happy to find materials for your professional and scholarly research interests. 

So gather your Amazon print-outs, your catalogs covered in Post-its or your highlighted flyers and get your wish list to me so I can get your books and DVDs ordered and processed as soon as possible so they will be ready when the semester begins. You may send them via campus mail, in a digital list via email or stop by the library and drop them off in person. If you come across materials that you would like purchased in support of your curriculum, please stop by the library or emailhblackbu@ksu.edu anytime through out the semester. 

See you in the library! 

"Coffee with the Dean" will be on the first Friday of every month, in the morning. The goal of this is to have a niceopen forum time in the community where she is available to anyone and can answer any questions anyone has, discuss campus happenings, etc. The inaugural coffee talk will be Friday, December 6, 7:30 am to 9:00 am at Moka's downtown. Please join us for any part of this, as it is come and go and we would value your support.
