Paper goes to bed, now we watch it be born

We edited and edited again. Finally the paper went to press. Now we watch as it is printed onto paper. We would all like to believe that this issue will make history, or at least AIJI history.

George Benge, our last speaker, will impart wisdom tonight, as every other speaker that we have had has done.

We will say good-bye to dorm living tomorrow and disperse this class, probably only to come together again thu emails and reading each others work.

It is always hard to say good-bye to people that have come together as a unit and experienced the same as yourself. That experience makes a bond between individuals that otherwise would never have known each other. We stand also, I am sure, as support to each other. If one needs help seeking information, or has an on the job question both the cohort and the staff are willing and able to be of assistance.

It is my hope that each of us not only does an exemplary job at what we do, but that we serve as examples and conduits for other Native Americans and for Native issues.
