hello fellow editors and editorial assistants,
reading the spotlight on our homepage this morning
http://web.mit.edu
. . . In addition to the new commuting options, MIT is hiring a
commuting coordinator who will develop, implement and maintain a
top-tier commuter services program in keeping with the Institute's
stated goal of "walking the talk" on energy and the environment.
Working closely with community members, the coordinator will set up a
feedback channel for new ideas and suggestions. . . .
i wondered about the phrase 'walking the talk.' i thought
that the correct phrase is 'walking the walk' ...as in 'all he
does is talk the talk: he doesn't walk the walk.'
what do you hear, say, read and/or write, esteemed colleagues?
