Hi, everyone!
This week I am absolutely covered in homework! So far, three
quizzes (two scheduled, one unscheduled), two cases and a paper! I
have times during the day that I wonder what day it is as well as
which class is next. Sounds funny and it is, yet I thought this
stuff was supposed to 'even out' a bit as we continued through the
program. Well, I guess not!
Coming up, I have a group presentation to turn in this week for
presenting next week to the class, two more cases...wait, check
that...three cases for next week, and start midterms the week
following.

Gathering Update
On another note, planning is going well for the Gathering in
November! The website is getting updated almost daily
with new activities, speakers' topics and information. The opening
and closing ceremony team had our first practice session last week
and more to come this week (hope to have a pic of that for you next
week). The banquet and band are coming together nicely for Saturday
night to entertain our guests! That's only my portion of the
responsibilities.
The team met today to make a short video about the Gathering,
thanks to Shaon's efforts on scripting and reserving the studio.
The promotion team is charged up with getting the word out to the
other six schools and building a display in our bookstore window,
thanks to Alison's efforts. We will have an all-organic and
gluten-sensitive menu for the entire weekend thanks to the work put
in by Kristen and her team. Our speakers are lined up and reserved
thanks to Aubrey, John, Thor, and Erica! Also, thanks to the other
teams of volunteers who are stepping up and getting all of the
nitty-gritty taken care of on a daily basis as the countdown
continues to the 2012 Naturopathic Gathering! A great team putting
together an incredible event!
Have a great week everyone!
