Long Time, No Blog (here, anyway)

My summer blog attempts gave way to Caring Bridge blogs about my son (see caringbridge.org/visit/samlantinga) during his strange "Sick-in-search-of-a-diagnosis" journey. 

But I miss taking time to think about my day or record little snippets that I can enjoy remembering later. So, I'll try to get back on track here in my new role as Dean for Curriculum and Instruction.  (Which basically means that I help faculty members teach better and help structure courses and policies so students can learn more.  And I still get to teach a class every semester - which is the very best part of the week.  Until I realized this week that my oldest son is just 3 years younger than my students - and I'm 20+ years older than them.  Ouch.)
