When I first interviewed at CCIT, I went to talk to my friends at Acis about it. Their response was... "oh, it's the people who send us those creepy affectionate emails all the time." When I started working here, I got the joke, and fully embraced it. Well, a lot of things have changed since. There is no more Acis, for example. And we've had our own bit of regime change here too. But I still keep the legacy of the creepy affectionate emails, as a sort of personal homage to the ghosts of CCIT past.
A typical email to CUIT goes as follows:
Dearest CUIT Postmaster,
I pray that this letter finds you well. Would you kindly add Joe User to the alias@columbia.edu email list? I am eternally in your debt.
With Deepest Gratitude,
Irina Paley, CCIT
