I'm back!

I apologies to all my readers out there for my period of inactivity. I have in fact been so active recently that I have failed to take time to write. The funny thing about being so active is that now I have finally decided to take the time to write, little is coming to me. So since I do not have anything to say at this moment, I will leave you with this:

"The opinions you have of people in your life affects them profoundly. Dr. J. Sterling Livingston, formerly of the Harvard Business School and founder of the Sterling Institute management consulting firm, observed, 'people perform consistently as they perceive you expect them to perform" (Maxwell & Parrott, 2005).

25 Ways to Win With People


How do you perceive those in your life?

Amazing Resourses

Today I took advantage of one of CSD's Lunch with a Professor and had lunch in a group setting with Dean of the Government School, Mr. Charles Dunn. It was amazing and I enjoyed every minute of it. Being at Regent, I have had the opportunity to meet many remarkable individuals of great accomplishments, and Dean Dunn is just one of those individuals. He has so much wisdom and experience in the field I feel called to, so I soaked up every word he spoke today. I also got to see an aspect I had yet seen of him, a man of deep and undeniable reliance upon his Lord and Savior. I encourage you, take opportunity of being at Regent to meet and get to know the remarkable faculty we have here. Also take opportunity of CSD resourses they regularly provide.

Engaging Learning

It feels like we have just barely started school and we are also into the third week of session A! Classes are going so fast, but I am very glad to be back into the work. In fact, one of my classes, Communication Ethics, is turing out to be very interesting. I believe that one of the things that excites me most about the class is that I will be doing a communication ethics analysis project that focuses on a subject of my choosing! I can tell you now, that the subject is going to be about President Ronald Reagan and how ethics played into this communication with the American people!

It is always invigorating when you are allowed to focus what you are learning onto a topics that personally engages you. It really helps bring the focus of the class home to the student.
