COSI Toledo |
 |
|
 |
 |
On December 31, 2007, COSI Toledo closed it doors and ceased all operations. Those of us at COSI Columbus were very disappointed to see this happen and are saddened for the many talented colleagues who lost their positions. We are discovering that in some instances, technical coordinators and teachers have not been notified that Toledo closed. We are fielding many calls about performing the shows COSI Toledo used to offer. Our two organizations had split all business functions and had become two completely separate legal entities in April 2006. Because of this split, COSI Columbus has no legal right to any property of COSI Toledo, up to and including scripts, props, equipment and proprietary show information. While we would love to help those of you that had reservations with COSI Toledo, we do not have the capacity to reproduce their shows at this time. We are trying to offer similar content wherever possible. Please forward this message to any of your colleagues that may still be expecting shows from COSI Toledo. If you have further questions about this situation, please email us at electroniceducation@mail.cosi.org. Thank you for your patience during this difficult time. |

Surgical Suite: Total Knee Replacement Schedule |
 |
|
 |
 |
A prepped patient, a bonesaw, and a surgeon in the zone. All remote connections for Surgical Suite: Total Knee Replacement are sold out. Check for available seats in COSI's Galaxy Theater. For grades 6-12. Total Knee dates have ‘hold’ slots in them. These are for rescheduling schools that are forced to cancel due to weather. If you sign up for a program that has a 'hold,' but all other slots are booked, you will be put on a waiting list. If the 'hold' slots are not used for rescheduling, we will offer the first schools on the waiting list a chance to participate in the program about 4-6 weeks in advance of the date of the program. |
