Bittersweet Run

This has been a rather bittersweet evening. I received a number of recognitions at our Honors Convocation, and was awarded a Chair. My students received grants and recognitions. One of my best, MS, received the Wall Street Journal award and two of my students were nominated for Senior of the Year. Neither won, but another student MS for whom I had written a letter for grad school got it. I met the parents of these students and it was the best part of the evening- far more rewarding than my individual accomplishments. There is so much work ahead this summer- I have to run hard just to keep pace.
