There are challenges we have to deal with. Complexities that must be resolved. Cynical personalities to help. Leadership and partnership transitions to be described, commuicated, and managed. We need discussions about the future.
Yesterday is in the past.
We need help for our students who look to graduate and find a job. Yet, somehow we have failed to understand that our students are our greatest asset. They are the reason we exist, and it is they who will become our leaders. Their understanding of what we are doing, and our efforts to maintain dignity in our work will influence their personalities, ethics, and personal life. Our behavior as well as our words that speak to being professional are indispensable to building a climate of trust within ASEP and the profession.
