Thanks so much. That’s exactly why I became a professor: only way to stay in school forever! The sad part is that I get older ever year, but the students always stay the same age.

I have been amazed and impressed by how generous people have been with their time. It is so refreshing. I’ll be writing a post about it for Danny’s party thing that I cannot remember the name of, but we have out national board of directors come to town once a year. And we make such great connections, but they are fleeting as we all get back to our lives.

This is so much better. Lubbock is a 5.5 hour drive from Dallas, so we have to e-connect.

You all (in Texas we pronounce it y’all), have made such an excellent start to 2009.

Thanks again!

I’m so glad we’ve connected! Your grasp on not only how to establish relationships across the web but how to distill the information that’s relevant to your industry is refreshing and inspiring. And as someone who would spend the rest of her life in academia (as a student) if I had unlimited funds, I truly value the role of carefully crafted information that can enable and empower so many others.

If my little corner of the world can ever be of assistance to you or to your class, don’t hesitate to reach out. I’d be more than happy to share a bit of what I know (or at least pretend to).

Best,
Amber

Thanks so much for checking out the post. Social media makes this so much easier. Before Web 2.0, it would have been difficult to find industry leaders, such as yourself, and even harder to connect.

Looking forward to many great conversations in 2009.

Looking forward to reading how you instill the knowledge you have with the theory and practical.
