Dec. 21st: Wishing you peace this Winter Solstice.

Dec. 22nd: We agree!

We had a wonderful time sharing culture through stories yesterday! #dragonboat #barongket #Indonesian #china #multicultural #diversity #KuanYin

Another year comes to an end. We've been taking these last few weeks of December to reflect, refine and plan. As we do so, we can't help but feel proud of the things we have been able to accomplish.

Dec. 25th: Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!

Dec. 24th: Changing Perspective.
The story of the first Christmas is thousands of years old. It can't help but change a bit as it moves through time and cultures. We can't help but sometimes feel a disconnect to those stories... facebook.com/photo/?fbid=19…

Dec. 23rd: Merry Christmas Eve Eve! That's what our kids greeting us with this morning. They are excited about the holiday but maybe even more so about the incoming storm that is affecting so much of our country... facebook.com/photo/?fbid=19…

Oh look! It's a 'Holiday for the Rest of Us'

If you are at UA tomorrow, stop by Gorgas House Museum & make a blue bead bracelet. Slowly look at a blue bead dating back to the antebellum period. It was found on our campus. Who owned it and why? youtu.be/4Or7L1w7YOE?si… #bluebeadproject #slowartday
