The version sent out yesterday highlighted the absence of some information from the Carleton web pages I was working from. Some Carleton folks have pointed out other places where I could have found more complete information. I should have found them myself–sorry. Below is a better version. –Rich Noer
I thought you might like to be better informed about the schedule for Carleton’s athletic events, and have therefore posted a new link, seen as the third link in the L sidebar, “Carleton Athletic Schedule” . If you go there, and then click on “Schedule of Events”, you’ll obtain what you desire. Ed We thank Joe Hargis for this welcome news. Ed
The students, faculty, and staff at Carleton College greatly appreciate the neighborhood’s warm reception to the new Weitz Center for Creativity. This fall’s grand opening of the Weitz Center ranks among the College’s most important milestones, and it forever links one of Northfield’s historical landmarks to Carleton and to the community. Along with a successful launch, the College has continued to work on fine-tuning the facility to address concerns expressed by neighbors who live nearby: 2) Light. Our electrical contractor has been working over the last few weeks to dramatically decrease the number of light fixtures that remain lit overnight. Of the 29 lights in the main common space, only 4 lights remain lit to provide light for people to exit the building. In the hallways, we have already reduced the number of fixtures lit by approximately 40%. 42 additional fixtures have been identified to be wired to turn off at night when the building is not used. The contractor has identified a solution to make this happen and they have been authorized to proceed. The lighting is programmed to go into the night “mode” at 11 p.m. During breaks, when the building is not in use in the evening, the night mode will begin at 7 p.m. Thanks again for your understanding and cooperation. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions. In the meantime, we very much hope you’ll come to the Weitz Center and enjoy the exhibits, plays, film showings, and other events throughout the year. For more information about the Arts at Carleton, please visit: http://apps.carleton.edu/arts/ Joe Hargis Associate VP for External Relations To all members of NESNA and the greater Northfield community: Recently I received a handsome, new e.mail newsletter from Carleton that you may or may not know about. Since the opening of the Weitz Center, many new artistic and educational events will be available to us, and this new newsletter is an excellent way of keeping abreast of Weitz and other events open to the public. Since Carleton cannot, for spam reasons, send e.mail blasts to all of us, it requires a bit of initiative to receive this new newsletter, which comes via an RSS feed. Of course this is optional, and you can discontinue it at any time. Here is how to go about it: 1. Go to www.carleton.edu, and click on “For the Northfield Community” on the lower left of the home page. 2. On this new window, click on “subscribe now” at the lower left. 3. On this new window, fill in the blanks for your e.mail address. This will then have you subscribed to the RSS feed, and you’ll receive event news in your e.mail. Best wishes for a happy and artistic holiday season from your NESNA board. Ed Lufkin, webperson For those who weren’t able to attend the Pumpkin Exhibit on Oct. 30, Paul Hager has created a lovely photographic memory for you. Click here to see it all. Pumpkin Exhibit Oct.
We hope to have more of these neighborhood events in the future. Ed
