The "people" data from Kevin needs to be aggregated, and added to existing faculty info, for it to be useful.
Kevin provides two spreadsheets whenever he kindly provides us with a snapshot (monthly?). One is the "grad" spreadsheet (from Pat Hine's data), and the other is a "staff" spreadsheet (from Sharon de Roos's data).

Oliver has a third "faculty" spreadsheet (data from Joyce Boda); not updated except by hand.
