UFVA and ACE

August 27, 2012

I’ve spent 15 days this August in Chicago—first at the University Film and Video Association conference and then at the American Council on Education Fellows retreat.

The conference was truly excellent, with inspiring presentations in all media.  I’m pleased to report that my film Passing Through was recognized with the Award of Merit in the Experimental Film category at the Conference.

I’ve spent the last five days at the ACE Fellows opening retreat.  The outstanding program allowed all of the Fellows to learn about strategic planning and budgeting and to apply this new knowledge to a simulated problem-solving case.  We visit a local University tomorrow and then it is back to Cambridge.
