Marathon Complete!

I completed one of my sabbatical goals yesterday - running the Twin Cities Marathon.  I'm so grateful to my family for all their support, and to many friends, family, colleagues, and former students who contributed to my charitable campaign.  Thanks to the generosity of many people, I have raised $5,989 for Homes for our Troops.  This amazing organization builds specially adapted homes for severely disabled military veterans.  I'm so proud to have contributed to their incredible work.  If anyone would still like to donate (just $11 more to pass $6,000!), you can do so by clicking here.   Now, back to my academic goals for this sabbatical - gotta write this book!  

Bryant Alumni Reception in Minneapolis

Several days prior to running the Twin Cities Marathon, I'll be hosting a reception for Bryant alumni in Minneapolis along with Robin Warde, Director of Alumni Engagement at Bryant.  The event will take place at 4 Bells in Minneapolis on Thursday, September 28th.  Hope to see many alumni, including former students, at this event.  For more information, click here.  

Homes for our Troops

Exactly one month from today, I'll be running the Twin Cities Marathon (October 1st).  The marathon represents one of my goals during this sabbatical year from Bryant University.  I'm running to raise funds for an organization called Homes for our Troops, an amazing and well-managed charity that helps build specially adapted homes for severely disabled veterans.  I hope you will join me in support of this incredible organization, rated four out of four stars by Charity Navigator.   You can donate by clicking here.  Thanks so much for your support!
