@matigo Gonzaga has extended Spring Break one more week to allow faculty a chance to prepare to move to online only classes through the end of the semester. We've had distance learning tools for years, but a lot of faculty have been slow to adopt them.

@phoneboy It's pretty wild, 20+ years of success and next year's incoming class is the most talented yet. This year was supposed to be down and yet somehow everything but the finish aligned.
🏀 I feel bad for all NCAA players and coaches, but canceling the tournament was absolutely the right decision, and on a personal level I was weirdly underinvested in what had been an unexpectedly fantastic Gonzaga season up to this point.
Learned how to whitelist Mac kernel extensions via configuration profile today so I think we're actually in decent shape for deploying the new VPN software to our Mac users without requiring direct technician assistance.
Would not have guessed that I would be considering installing at least one cheap toilet bidet add-on, but that's where we're at with the panic toilet paper apocalypse around here.
@matigo he's also palatable to a meaningful segment of Republican and Independent voters.
@matigo The good news is that in Spokane Country (which trends blue in the city limits and red in the suburbs) there were about 14,000 more votes for all the Democrat candidates combined than for Trump. There were just a lot of votes for candidates that have withdrawn.
@matigo Well a bunch of the candidates that dropped out were still on the ballot so the current numbers are 32.7% Sanders, 32.5% Biden, and .8% Gabbard (who I consider a bad Republican/Russian joke based on her voting record and sketchy bot support).
Spokane County hasn't yet confirmed any COVID-19 positives, but at work we're already making preparations to start telecommuting. Students are on Spring Break right now and it seems like a decision will have to be made soon.
I must say that the State of Washington's voter sentiment on Sanders vs. Biden seem to have matched my own pretty closely. Complete tossup separated by a couple tenths of a percent at the moment.
