Happy to be in my office on a lovely late-summer Tuesday morning! Lots of time on the road for my first few weeks at ACCT - it's been great to meet our members and spend time traveling w/colleagues, but also nice to settle in a bit more now.

At ACCT we have a #highered poetry magnet set on the fridge in the kitchen. Here's what I came up with while heating up my coffee this morning - not really a poem, but what's top of mind for me right now. Perhaps resonates with others as we head into the fall semester?
