Abstract:
Planning, organizing, coordinating, following-up and following-through take time, patience and attention to detail to create successful projects. The front-end work is often unseen by students and the community who take part in these wonderfully created exhibitions and presentations, but living in these moments of imagining what can be possible is only topped by the joy of watching students accept academic and social challenges and bring their best selves to the task.
