Women's Leadership Program Travels

Tuesday, March 14, 2006

Could it be that the conference is over?

The last day of the conference arrived - how can it be only three days? So much has happened, we have heard from so many fabulous speakers, met folk from just down the street at Georgetown University, from miles away, even from worlds away. And yet, we discovered, we are more similar than different, concerned with the same issues of opportunities for leadership at all levels for women.

Our panel concerning the WLP went well. A bit of irony, though, is how much we learned about our own program. There was an excellent interchange among the students and with the audience. We are even more committed to the program and have new ideas for resources and activities.


The panel: Beauty is in the eye of the beholder: stakeholders views of the Women's Leadership Program. Participants included Catherine Villnave, Gillian Robinson, Megan Shea, Sara Al Asfoor, Mary Buckley (Professor) Rachelle Heller (Associate Dean) Konika Metre and Allison Kreutzjans

Hey there, this is from a WLP supporter that just so happens to be posting as a WLP Travels member...anyway...

what an amazing trip you guys have had. throughout all the experiences and fun, there seems to be a bit of self recognition that is happening along the way as well. What an amazing time for those that are just experiencing the vibe of being amongst people that share the same passion...it's a difficult thing to find in the 'real' world. But from the looks and sounds of it, your group has really taken it in stride and has regarded this trip as something special and life changing. Just think of how many people in the world, at a young tender age of 19 or 20, or even older (Meghan, Mary, etc...) can say that they attended this conference in the first decade of the new century. This is a big deal. So big, that I have to mention that, not that I would ever assume that you wouldn't already know, but for my own purposes, that Opra is thinking about broadcasting her show live from the very place that your group is right now. That's a huge thing...a huge thing. anyway, in conclusion, it seems like your travels are fairing well and your experiences are as full as they can be, keep it up for the next few days. Take care and all the love we can send you from our side of the world.
