Today's riddle: What do an island and the letter "t" have in common? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• 'This was not an easy decision': Matt Wyatt resigns after less than 2 years on Talawanda BOE (oxfreepress.com) — Talawanda school board member Matt Wyatt is resigning effective Sept. 25, creating a vacancy that must be filled within 30 days and will run through at least December 2027. Wyatt, who moved to Oxford to work at Miami University, praised recent academic gains and urged voters to keep the board focused on students. Residents should watch for the district's upcoming public notice on how to apply for his seat.
• Complementary football leads UConn to blowout win over Southern Miss (wfsb.com) — UConn's football team is heading to Oxford next Saturday to take on Miami University, bringing a 2-1 record after a big win over Southern Miss. Quarterback Kalieb Osborne is coming off a four-touchdown performance, so expect an energized matchup at Yager Stadium. Local fans can catch the 3:30 p.m. kickoff and enjoy a lively game-day atmosphere.
• Miami cites state law in prohibition of union faculty teaching outside for planned Labor Day-related event (oxfreepress.com) — Miami University barred union faculty from holding a Labor Day-related "Teach-OUT" outside their classrooms in Oxford, citing state law and the union contract, prompting the Faculty Alliance of Miami to explore legal options. Faculty leaders argue the event was a modest celebration of labor and accuse the university of overreach and union-busting as contract talks stall. The dispute could shape working conditions, pay, and classroom flexibility for Miami instructors and students over the next several years.
