Last year

254 days until retirement.

My last academic year has started.  Sinclair has been a huge part of my life for 24 years.  It is strange to be aware that I am doing things for the last time - the last fall payroll, the last time I will be teaching this class.  In terms of interaction I am much more involved with first year students.  So this is my last first year class.  Even though I am obviously excited about the move to Bluffton I want this to be a good year for the students.

We have the added excitement of an accreditation site visit in a few weeks.  It will be my fourth and my last.  They haven't asked for any additional information from the written self study and that usually means that they have found everything they are looking for.  It doesn't do to get complacent, however, it isn't over until it is over.
