Ian C. Colquhoun commented on FacultyRow Director's group 'Transform Education'"At a time when students seem to treat online research resources (e.g., journal articles, etc.) as the preferred, or even as the only valid, form of academic information -- heaven forbid that they might have to delve into the journal stacks…"

Transform Education
Technology is rapidly changing the way we teach and learn. What change, innovation, or disruption, are you experiencing? This crowdsource solution was started as an initiative to provide insight and explore synergies with IBM. It is strictly an exploratory project and will hopefully lead to a more formal synergy and partnership. Your thoughtful contributions are greatly appreciated.*Crowdsourcing to harness the power of a collective knowledge will be the future of problem solving. Let's learn from each other.See More

I'm wondering where in Western Ontario you're located. I teach at SUNY Fredonia, a town 50 miles south of Buffalo. I guess you could say I'm south of Eastern Ontario (Central Ontario?).

Dear Prof. Colquhoun,
You combine anthropology with biology and specifically primatology! Sounds fascinating.
Aha, so it's in London, Ontario. My wife and drove to London, just for the heck of it, several years ago, and spent the night in a hotel that had been an armory. You must know which one it is. We had dinner in a very small restaurant on the main street, and it was very good. I'm glad you explained why the University refers to "Western Ontario," because I was thinking it was way out west, as you say, north of Minnesota and bordering Manitoba. Thanks for the historical (not hysterical) explanation.
