Also, I was looking at photos from last year's Halloween, when the list was semi-conceived, and I can't believe it was a year ago already!leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15526125275744222447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3274146349832942990.post-36102943267790391662010-11-09T17:21:12.031-08:002010-11-09T17:21:12.031-08:00Sorry I couldn't make it to this meeting!

Emails are great but I'm sure that they are not have as inspiring and energizing. As I was reading the notes from the meeting, I was thinking about how exciting this project is. It's exciting because it tackles salient issues on the global agenda. And it's relevant because the targeted deadline for achieving the MDGs is fast approaching. But I think the most significant thing about this is that it is truly a collaborative effort between a professor, current students and alumni.<br /><br />Trish, I feel like this 7th serendipitous thing on your list really highlights one of the coolest things about your list of 52 Things. This year has been so much about other people as well (not just about you and not just about doing something new!). You've met cool new people, formed new bonds/relationships with people you've already new, and brought new groups of people together in the most interesting ways! <br /><br />PS:- How bout we have our next meeting in Oxford? I think we could all fit in my living room if we packed in tightly!Jamilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15096594401109917156noreply@blogger.com
