It has been a good start to the 2011 Fall Academy. The scholars have brought positive team spirit, energy, and lots of homework to Center. Scholars are doing a good job of working diligently to do their homework, but need to do a better job of recording it on agendas. Most of the scholars have adjusted well to expectations; however, you should expect more calls than usual to address some of the issues that are arising at Center.
Much of this week has been about rebuilding our community, and introducing the scholars to the new mentors that will be working with them this year. We have put a lot off time and energy into the culture-building activities at Center, and the scholars and mentors seem to be having a lot of fun. Thank you all for your support in helping us get off to a strong start. I am very much looking forward to having a productive year.
