The horizons are approaching fast on the technology front. We saw a sneak preview of what Qualcomm hopes will be the next generation smartbook... cell phone + laptop = smartbook. It sure looked and sounded like everything the iPad is not and built for education. Watch for this one.
There were big complications for the Womens' Center on the campus of a Catholic university. It is hard to figure out how things get so twisted up but we all know it happens every day. The question is what do we do to work to resolution? As with a number of the cases, we were able to speak to the real people involved in the case. The case jumps to life when you here the players tell their story and in Paul Harvey fashion you get 'the rest of the story.'
The day closed with a presentation by Beverly Daniel Tatum, President of Spelman College in Atlanta. She talked with the group about how we can create an environment of engagement and inclusion across campuses.
Words to consider:
If I'm working in the service of my vision it doesn't matter if I'm afraid
Meaning is what matters.

hey....I was just thinking, as I looked at the photo of the Beverly lady-how much better I 'get' stuff if I have 'visuals' like the real person who tells her own story-so-that makes perfect sense to me and gets an emotional connection to what might have been a very dry presentation 'til you see the faces of those involved!
Cool!
