Won't Let It Go to my Head

At CHIC, a student reporter came by and interviewed us. Debbie Griffith and I were in the office and it wasn't too busy, so we chatted a while. They published the story in Friday's edition (just like she said), and I'm quoted a few times! Today I even found the article online.

From The Daily Beacon, the University of Tennessee's student paper, 6,000 students gather to renew faith:

“The conference takes place every three years because of the amount of time necessary to organize and plan an event of this magnitude,” said Jim Bell, assistant CHIC coordinator. ...

“Few places around the country have the ability to hold a group of this size,” Bell said. “The UT Conferences’ staff is top-notch. The staff is one of the reasons we continue to come back here.”

The reporter liked Debbie's title (CHIC Liaison) better than mine (Assistant CHIC Coordinator). Hmph!

Where did she get the 6,000 attendance figure? I gave it to her, before I knew the real count. It's right to one "significant digit," so there.

Please pass word to the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal and others that I'm available for more in-depth interviews.
