Summer Session -- Trial by Fire

I have survived my first week and a half at an Ivy League institution -- barely. The program is a firm believer in "trial by fire" -- or more appropriately, trial by reading. Lots of it. 150 pages or more each night. So while I do get to enjoy two days each week with classes starting at 1 p.m. (JOY! SLEEPING IN!), I toil into the wee hours that I haven't seen on a weeknight since second year of undergrad. So why am I spending my valuable writing time posting on my blog? Simply put, it beats reading.

Another finger of the fire is our field work at Nonprofit Techonogy Resources. Working with these six student interns is, simply put, amazing. They have skills I couldn't imagine. I hope that I can contribute something to their lives in the short time that I am here.
