JLH

Here's an image from each of my alma maters.  (No current logos since they are copyrighted): above:  WMC Alumni Hall at McDaniel College, Westminster, MD
(The theatre building)

This is Jen's Page (I couldn't get this text to display before the photo no matter what I tried.) 

An old logo.  This school is obviously in Baltimore.  No, it's not the same as University of Maryland Baltimore County or University of Maryland (where the Terps are, which is College Park).

Now, let's see a photo from each of my academic employers (because no one wants to see an image of the Carlisle, PA Pizza Hut):


Juniata.  No, NOT "Juanita".  You pronounce the "J" the English way.  It's a river in PA.  I did a post-doc here for two years.  


The best I can do from Aquinas without using copyrighted images is this photo of Bukowski Chapel.
Fun.

Here is link if you want to click through it:  https://michaeljlorr.com/ Not sure how I might use this in teaching, but my students always like to look at my website when I show them I have one.

I don't have a blog or a regular website

Any text-based information I share with students I can do via the LMS, so I never found a real use for a blog.  Being an itinerant visitor, I didn't need a stable home page for my research (which depends on students and available equipment).  I do, however, use web-based materials for classes.  Since computational tools are now readily available, I use some assignments with simplified versions.  To this end, I write a lot of server-side code to access the computational tools so students need not install anything on a local machine. One such site I have been revisiting in preparation for the fall is a web-based queue system for running Monte Carlo calculations for statistical thermodynamics.  Students access the main page which shows all jobs associated with the queue. A student can submit a new job- either a simple Ising model (magnetic system) or a rare-gas system.  A web form lets them input the parameters: Data from completed jobs can be viewed Selecting...
