Hello, Sports fans! My name is Chester M.L. Morris and I guess most of you know me from my column, “From Where I Sit” in the College Executives newsletter, News, Views, ‘N Interviews. (If you don’t get the newsletter, be sure to sign up on the RESOURCES page! I am pretty awesome!)

When I was promoted from G.F.F. (go-fer and fetch) to C.C.O. (Chief Canine Officer), I got a new job description. While I still go and fetch, it is a much more important fetching job to match the awesome title. Now I have responsibility of fetching Referrals. I guess it is only right because, after all, folks get an awesome gift, like a gorgeous tee shirt with my picture on the front as a “thank you” for the referral or whatever else we may be giving away…sometimes Fran forgets to tell me what our latest gift is! If you get the long sleeve tee, it has the same picture that is here on this webpage! Yeppers, a picture of me in my great office, taken the day I moved in-that’s why it is so clean! Yeah, you get a shirt just for the name. Now understand as part of the job description, I have to give the referral the old “sniff test” and make sure they are fur real, like, they work in our sector and aren’t just some kid or neighbor or something like that, you know what I mean?

Here’s the deal. It’s easy. You have lots of friends who work in the career education sector, right? So “give ‘em up”! Get a gift for you or your kids! Or get one for every kid you have! It’s up to you! And here’s the best part, my adoring fans: Every time you send me a referral that passes my snift test, I GET 10, YES THAT IS 10 BISCUITS!! I loveitloveitloveit! So give ‘em up and send em on over to me, like NOW!
