As I was reading the last Senate minutes minutes I was struck by the 
following quote:

>In response to another question, Chancellor Brown expressed 
>dissatisfaction with the current state funding formula­which has only been 
>funded at a 70% level­and with suggested revisions to this formula that 
>favor research institutions.

The quoted passage brought to mind an answer I had earlier sent a colleague 
who e-mailed to ask what the UTC motto "Faciemus" meant.  I had written 
that it meant "We shall do."  However, it also means "We shall make."  And 
as we have seen again and again here at UTC, the motto very well may mean 
"We shall make-do."

I hope those of you who have found me wanting in sense of humor for my 
previous posting, will see that I do, in fact, have one.
