HISTORY
The pillar was completed 8th July 1949 costing £11.14s.0d. Computed as tertiary triangulation station SD96/T7 within the Skipton secondary block during 1951. Flush bracket S5617 was levelled for height to first class precision, tertiary standards in August 1953. This pillar station was last maintained by the Ordnance Survey in June 1976.
SITE VISIT
Approached from northeast. Road quiet and wide enough to park by NW kerb at SD742685. Followed mapped field boundaries WNW and SSW to trig. Pillar on NW side of boundary fence, planted field to NW, pasture to SE. Column in good condition. Spider retains original OS centre cap with shallow engraved letters. Flush bracket faces ESE, ~114° into fence. Vented through sighting hole on FB face. Open outlook is mainly an upward view to surrounding hills.

Each year, Dartmouth asks staff members from across campus to nominate peers who stand out as exemplars of dedication to the College community for The Lone Pine Excellence Awards. Congratulations to Thayer Computing Services for winning "The Innovation Award"!
"The team has been recognized for years for always going above and beyond, but this year, the stakes were significantly higher," says Alexis Abramson, dean of Thayer. "Within the two weeks prior to spring term, this team worked non-stop to help us all figure out how best to pivot to remote learning. The Thayer Computing Services team became a valuable resource for all of Dartmouth, and they selflessly and tirelessly helped others navigate the complexities of potential technology solutions. Even more over the past three terms, they have met with each faculty member individually — most of them multiple times — to consult on options for teaching remotely and to help them arrive at the best solution in consideration of the needs of the course and the preferences of the faculty member."
The winning team includes (pictured l to r) Mark Franklin, director of Computing Services; Jared Benedict, associate director of Innovation & Educational Technology; Ben Servoz, senior systems engineer; Richard Crowley, systems administrator; Matt Dailey, senior systems engineer; Zack Bennis, user support manager; Daniel Safford, user support analyst; Jane Reynolds, user support analyst; and David Townsend, user support analyst.

In the first fortnight of the Otago Polytechnic Bachelor of Information Technology project we invite local industry leaders: "The Dragons". They provide critique of projects as early as possible. This is a chance to get feedback, and hopefully unearth opportunities and risks.
