A Re-introduction
I’ve been out of the blogging world for what seems like a lifetime now (spring 2009 was my last post). I originally used my blog as a way to organize and showcase my graduate school programs learning outcomes. I contributed because it was required. I enjoyed the process, but I realize that it was yet another task in a long progression of academic steps necessary within the field of higher education.
Now I see myself blogging for another reason, I’ve been in the field of higher ed for over 2 years now and I’ve seen a lot of stuff. Stuff that warms my heart and things that tear away at my insides. I’ve had conversations that bring tears to my eyes and struggled with personal and professional cognitive dissonances that have tangled my brain into something resembling a human pretzel. I have yet to deconstruct or solve many of the issues I have faced but I think it is finally time that I write. I will not write looking for answers; I will not write looking for feedback; I will write simply to provide digital breadcrumbs for my ongoing journey.
