What will the day bring? Magic, History, Art, Science and Smiles

Lucky for me my day yesterday included all of these things. Yes, yesterday was one of "those" days. Licking County sure knows how to produce them and it is important to chronicle, celebrate, share and encourage so there are more and hopefully you can experience. I don't have much time but want to capture and get the word out:

Summer Scholars @ Denison Yesterday I engaged with a number of talented, smart, brave, hardworking, delightful students. The Symposium where posters are presented is a campus favorite activity of mine! These were science and humanities, and next week the arts. If you work at Denison don't miss it! Our future is bright with Denisonians like these- accolades to the professors and staff making it happen...and the philanthropy behind it!  I walked the Mithcell Center and could only smile.

Denison Performances:  https://denison.edu/places/eisner-center   Follow the link, get on the mailing list, get tickets and go...something told me, go see Bobby Floyd, go see Byron Stripling Quartet and I'm so glad I did.  Turns out Byron Stripling is a Denison parent, the best people send their kids to Denison.  I attended the show with two of those types of Denisonians!!  Thank you Byron for a magical night that just delighted my heart and soul and produced laughter and awe.

Those were highlights from yesterday, the good things. There were frustrations, my school work is getting real and I have to find the time, the schedule gets switched, but oh the good outweighs the bad and I'm grateful to be here.

A wise woman told me when I started down this career path, you never know what your day will hold. No two days will be the same and she could not be more right!  I really didn't know how lovely yesterday would be.

What will today bring..Intell's groundbreaking is making history (here is the replay). Joe and I watched TV this morning with live coverage from the site.  My work with the Granville Chamber of Commerce and my philanthropic studies heighten my interest and desire to study, understand and contribute. Our world is changing, just as the commencement speaker in 1990 at Denison said it would because of- superconductors!
