1st Semester Completed!

I completed my first semester at the University of Kansas this week. It has been an interesting adventure with a wonderfully smart and enthusiastic staff. It has been my pleasure to contribute to the 2873 consultations with writers that were done this semester, including over 320 online consultations. I have learned so much from the staff, about the practice of writing consultation, about my own practice and about the vibrant culture here at KU. And as always seems to happen with me, every day I learn that I have so much more to learn. 

It is also bittersweet to have to say good-bye to the graduates. On the one hand I am proud to have known them, and on the other hand, I am sorry we didn't get the chance to know each other better. I wish them all the best of the adventure that they are facing at this time in their lives. What a ride!
