Perspective & Responsibility

As you all know, I was in Chicago this week. I was driving through downtown and passed Northwestern University. It reminded me of my trip this past summer to Oxford. The architecture was incredible. Of particular note were the enormous stone buildings of Northwestern that had "School of Law" and "School of Commerce" carved into the arches of the doorways of these impressive schools. Just as the history I felt when observing the Oxford University buildings, Northwestern reminded me of the responsibility and excitement of contributing to our fields and our societies. It was inspirational, a little scary, and very motivating for me.

  1. This is the same feeling that I got after I attended my first week of classes at CGU.  All of a sudden, I realized that I was on the verge of a journey that very few people take.  I going to be trained to contribute to the discipline.  That thought is as inspirational, and scary, as the granite façades of the buildings of the great Universities of the world.  I sure know what you mean!
