Crossing the Threshold

 Well, the semester has finally come to a close. It actually seemed like a short one this fall. I have to say it was certainly an enjoyable one. Having a fairly small class of people that mostly knew each other kept converation flowing and interesting. I feel like most of us are finally coming into the home stretch of the program, and we’ve all grown a lot along the way.

Some highlights from the semester:

• Tim’s flute demonstration in conjunction with the Powell flute workshop information (AMAZING!)
• Constructing the CMAP as a class – this was such a worthwhile activity.  I feel like we got more out of the discussion generated in class than we would have from our readings alone or constructing individual maps.  What a great way to share ideas and feed off of each other!
• The case studies we delved into – WHO and NASA.  Both were interesting and provided a good means to apply our Dixon readings.
• Our blogs – my first attempt, but I really enjoyed writing my blog and reading my classmates’ blogs.  What a cool way to share ideas, be creative and engage in discussion.
• FOOD – thanks to Carmen for the pizza and Buddy’s wife for the breads!!!
• Ok, ok – the cultural analysis paper…As painful as it was to write this long thing, it was a great experience to research and write about my organization.

 Thanks everyone and Dr. Carter for a productive and enjoyable semester, and I look forward to seeing you all in the spring along with Baby Jay!
