Sept 1, 2021 - This week was the beginning of teaching my classes at UVM, and something I’ve asked all the students is to share a moment that they felt really present.

Sept 2, 2021 - In my return to teaching at UVM, I have had a very different experience than last semester. Without the COVID protocols of social distancing, it feels incredibly normal. It's a real reminder that we need to be around each other, and keeping separate from one another is really har...

Sept. 6, 2021 - Today is Labor Day, and it’s Monday. I got up this morning and went down to the kitchen. It was so quiet. Normally there are cars racing to work, and a general energy of MONDAY. But, instead, it was super quiet and relaxed outside, and I had a similar feeling on the inside of ...
