The snow is melting...

The snow is melting around Hanover and TDI classes are back in full swing.

Sorry for the break in posts over the last few weeks. Most of us were focused on finals during the middle of March and then spring vacation provided a break in the action. Some students went on vacation, a few stayed in New Hampshire to work on projects, and others mixed business and pleasure. For example, one student spent part of her spring break interning in Washington DC, and I spent a week vacationing in Mexico then stopped in New York City to deliver a presentation before returning to school.

Now that school has started, most are wrapped up in thesis and internship projects. Despite the workload, there's still time for extracurricular adventures. One group spent Sunday hiking up to Tuckerman's Ravine, skiing the headwall, and biking out. Although I missed that excursion, I reserved some time yesterday to attend a talk delivered by visiting scholar Dr. Milt Weinstein, and then to watch the NCAA finals with a friend who's a UNC alum. It's a busy time for TDI students but we still make time to enjoy the non-classwork opportunities in the area.
