from Wayne Wood:
The annual Pets of Vanderbilt issue of the employee magazine House Organ is out. There were almost 1,000 individual emails with photographs submitted for the pets issue and for the calendar contest that we conduct at the same time, and many of those had multiple files. It was a big job to sort through the pictures. There are 45 photos of award nominees, and another 125 or so on the web exclusively.
There are 15 nominees for Dog of the Year, 15 for Cat of the Year, and 15 for Duo of the Year. Voting begins today, and will continue until 10 a.m. on Thursday, Feb. 17.
For those of you who just can’t get enough Vanderbilt pets, there are even some pet videos.
For the inside story on the first House Organ Pet Poll, two years ago, in which voters were so enthusiastic that University servers were endangered, read here.
For the results of last year’s Pet Poll, read here.

Just voted! …and sheesh apparently I’m not average – the dog I voted for had 2.5% of the votes, the cat had 2%, and the duo had 13.6%
