Seven of us are now sitting in Dulles Airport, having traveled from Boston earlier today.
Over the next few hours, our group will grow to 25 people (hopefully!), and at 4:50 pm we’ll depart together for Moscow. We’ll arrive in Moscow at 11 am on Saturday, Aug. 3, spend the night there, and then depart for Yakutsk on the evening of July 4th. We’ll also pick up another participant in Moscow, so we’ll be 26 then. After an overnight flight (6 more time zones), we’ll arrive at 6 am in Yakutsk on Tuesday July 5. We’ll then spend one night in Yakutsk (picking up one more person so we’ll be 27), then finally fly to Cherskiy on Wednesday July 6. Wow – it is now Friday and we’ll be flying until next Wednesday! So far so good…

July 2, 2010 at 8:17 amHi Max and everyone else – Exciting!!! Had a great meeting with John yesterday and stuff will be waiting for the two of you in your inboxes.
I’m planning to share the rubric John and I developed for assessing the research proposal abstracts at the AAC&U Institute for Engaging Departments next week. dissemination even before you’ve done the work!
Take care and travel safely! I’ll check the website often over the next month! Say hi to everyone! – Jo
