Thanks for your ideas and sharing last week on both the topic of Equity and Scholarly Habits. 

Hi all

This is the last weekly notes until after Thanksgiving. 

On the topic of giving thanks, I'd like to extend my thanks to you for all that you do, day after day, month after month, and year after year. Thank you for your patience for me and the system....each other and our students. Thank you for your commitment to our goals and transition....each other and our students. Thank you for the hard work and time you dedicate.....for each other and our students. Thank you for your kindness and openness that you project .....for each other and our students. I hope you have a great week and wonderful break (next week). 

Here is a link to last week's notes. I noticed there were only 3 views, so if you missed it, please go back and take a look to see if there is anything important for which you may want to note.
