Tom told me yesterday that he has already sent off his course proposals for the classes he would teach in Luneburg! I was impressed because he has been working hard to get prepared for the classes that start here this week and I thought he would be another week to get his curriculum revised for the German term and content. Some of the coursework is based on what he already teaches and some he is revising to be appropriate for German students. In one of his American public policy classes he is going to be focusing on the US National Park System as a model for policy making. He says that Europeans are very interested in our National Parks since many are seen as symbolic to America. He is also hoping for an excuse to invest in the National Park PBS Series DVDs!
Otherwise, no news or progress on the German adventure. I am pretty inundated with things to get accomplished on the home front for our "normal" activities and my online coursework!
