Hi Mame; Hi Community Leaders; Hi Students.
This is a first for me: my own blog site.  It was so easy to start up and I'm excited about design possibilities.

I enjoyed the self introductions last week.  I'm impressed with the diversity of our experiences, and  I'm eager to get the list of everyone's blog addresses to start exchanging ideas.

I'm looking forward to the class trip tomorrow, to take a quick look at our community sites.

I've started reading Has Modernism Failed by Suzi Gablik and find it helpful to understanding our current art world.
