Hello from Caribou, I have been here in Menomonie for the last 4 1/2 days and have a couple left to go. Not surprisingly, I have been here in my old haunt working away, where I have actually been quite productive. It is a great way to begin my day before 7:00 and sit hereContinue reading “Full Circle”

Reflections on Learning in our 24/7 Classroom
Hello late in the evening from Kraków, As we finished the last day of actual classes today, students scattered to the winds to have dinner and manage their last evening before their convocation at Jagiellonian University’s hallowed halls tomorrow.

Questioning the Question
Good early afternoon from Costa (the coffee shop with wi-fi and good things to eat, and in close proximity to our accommodations), The morning was a traveling classroom and lecture and visit to the Galicia Jewish Museum.

Processing Evil
Hello, It is about 1:00 a.m. in Poland and I am flying back to the United States in the morning, but I wanted to get some things down here in my blog before I leave.

Beyond Trying
Good morning, This title is both intentionally and, for some, frustratingly vague. Yet, if you really know me, it is profoundly clear.

Those changes were based on my own self-image and a realization that my advancing age required me to make someContinue reading “Beyond Trying”
