Good Day.
I'm Larry Riley.

(Does this look artistic, or just blurry?)


To the left is a look at current conditions along McKinley, the main road through the middle of campus. The picture updates every five minutes. Below is an apt anagram:


If you're interested or in need, email me: lriley@bsu.edu.

Where I am this term, Spring of 2012: I have English 104 MW at 5 p.m. (Section 73, LA 19 S) and 6:30 p.m. (Section 89, RB 106) and MWF at 3 (Section 60, LA 18 S). Office hours: 4-5 MW. Email me anytime.


I teach in the Writing Program of the Department of English at Ball State University in Muncie, Ind. A journalist, too, I write social/political commentary columns appearing Wednesdays and Sundays in the Perspectives section of The Star-Press (once at that site, scroll down to my visage), a 32,000-circulation daily in east-central Indiana. For several years, I wrote from Muncie for the Indianapolis Star. I'm also a member of Steeler Nation. Isn't this downright Dilbertish that almost one word in ten takes you away?
