The BSI Week in Review: August 6, 2010
|
Posted By: Leshell Hatley on August 07, 2010 Greetings Scholars~ We hope your summer is amazing and filled with new discoveries. We have returned from trips for educational and 'vacational' reasons and are happy to be back. We were pleased to return to log files indicating the number of site visits remained at 'normal' levels even though we weren't entering any new posts during our weeks away. Upon returning, we were even more excited that we had to immediately upgrade our servers to accommodate greater capacity. These occurrences point to growth - as we see it and with that, we appreciate your continued interest and support. We also found that we will not be able to offer the special 'summer enrichment' plans we had back in May. But not without good reason - as we have been working on another project that we think everyone will be very pleased with...and hope to announce it in a month or so. So stay tuned. So, without further delay, here you have it, this week's review of amazing scholarship featured on The Black Scholars Index. Again, we truly appreciate your interest and support and look forward to serving you more next week!
