Since my last post, I have visited Milwaukee, Lincoln, Tucson, Dallas, and Portland & Bend, Oregon. It's been a tremendously busy summer but now we are back on campus and returning to a regular schedule. Classes start at Rockhurst this Wednesday, and this past weekend was Freshmen Orientation. I had the pleasure of meeting some of our wonderful new Honors students during move-in at the Living-Learning Community in Corcoran Hall on Saturday, and today is our Fall Faculty Workshop. Though I will miss traveling, I'm glad to return to a more structured schedule and I'm excited to spend time with students and colleagues once again.
