Summary
We decided copyright jeopardy should be dScribes vs. the faculty. It will be at ~11:30 am on Friday, March 27. Who'd like to participate?

dScribe logo feedback:


 * 1) The font and (cc) placement of the first version look like it's sponsored by CC
 * 2) Liked the one with dScribe sitting on d - perhaps add a second dScribe on the e
 * 3) More gender equality or gender neutral
 * 4) The 2nd and 3rd versions look like an army of people behind dScribe. Is that what we're going for?
