Opinion On the bottom floor of the Besse Library and across the Media Center is a room that either most people probably don’t pay attention to or always wonder what it contains. The room holds thousands of stories from all over the country, dating from over a century ago to the present day. These stories are not limited to paper and a bound cover but by thread and fabric. They all help create the Historic Costume Study Collection. Upon entering the cold room, you might feel overwhelmed. On the wall to the left are shelves that contain purses, hats, and muffs; on the right, there are shoes, gloves, and jewelry in cabinets and in repurposed library catalog card holders.

Failure to Innovate is the Key Reason for Failure Editorial There are two overriding organizational and personal imperatives to sustainability: 1) understanding why someone would do business with you or your organizations—a distinctive; and 2) how to become and remain innovative organizationally and personally- innovativeness. As we address the current state of affairs with the world-wide pandemic and compellingly difficult race issues in the U.S. keep these imperatives in mind. The summer of 2020 finds the world in a perfect storm of disconcerting academic and societal issues combined with “global weirding” of vocations enabled by rapid changes with artificial intelligence and a wide-open internet’s zettabyte of data accessible on demand. These earth shattering events are occurring under the societal issues that surfaced with a human brutality most never have witnessed and a pandemic the like of which has not been seen for over a 100 years. Strategic moves under these combined events ...
