Semester Wrap Up

#MBALife Update:

The semester is just about over! Only one more final in my way…

It’s been a brutal term, full of group projects and last minute assignments, but it’s also been rewarding! My diversity class was a great learning experience for me, and I thoroughly enjoyed Global Business–soooo much to learn there! I wish the class was longer (said everyone in the class!! Unexpected, I know).

#WorkLife Update:

Projects have been wrapping up in the office as well!

The Vendor IT Expo is over, and the surveys have been deployed and shut down. Overall, visitors said it was a valuable event and all the vendors want to come back next year! #Success! If you missed the event or just want to revisit photos and presentations, that information is available at my other U blog: u.osu.edu/VendorITExpo

The latest Bob Gribben video is out (and then edited, and released again) and you can check that out here:

#PersonalLife Update:

My dance show, “Raisin’ the Roof” is also over. The two night event was responsible for raising $4,500 for Nationwide Children’s Hospital! #BOOM

I also got to bust out my go-go boots. I’d say that’s a win-win for me and the children. 😀
Go-Go Randi

Stay tuned for more #WorkLife updates…Pelotonia should be ramping up and there are some mobile enhancements in the pipeline!

Bob Gribben, YouTube Star

In the Office of the CIO, we’ve been developing an ongoing video series starring the one-and-only Bob Gribben, that password change guy.

We noticed all the hateful things students were saying about him on Twitter and decided to borrow Jimmy Kimmel’s “mean tweets” sketch format for the first video:

The popularity of this video encouraged us to continue with the series. 90 days later, Bob Gribben reminded students that hackers don’t take a holiday:

This time, however, Bob really wanted to get students involved.

I’ve been following students on Twitter, finding those willing to act and working with them to film their segments. Bob was his goofy self when filming as well!

The final product should be released in the very near future; we are just finishing up the captions (YouTube had no clue what Bob was saying…)

Be on the lookout for “Students Tweet at BobbyGribbs”!

For now, enjoy the extended footage from this video project: BuckeyeBar Bloopers
