The ADW is on the air! Well, a little. :) The radio station of Eastern Michigan University, WEMU, saw the recent UM News Service item about our recent site redesign, and gave us a small item in their news coverage. The item aired this morning, and maybe this afternoon, and is also on their website, so you can listen whenever you want. Here's the address

Many thanks to Bob Eccles and WEMU!
