This morning I had the great opportunity to speak with some of our future leaders at CCNY Scholars Academy which is a summer program that provides highly motivated high school students an opportunity to enroll in challenging mathematics and science courses in a 5-week intensive program.
Before I started my program, they were figuring out the 'math problem' of the day. As I told them, I clearly would have flunked!

It was fun and educational for me to work with them-- all from the I-Generation and to talk about how we all communicate, network and build relationships.
A Big thanks to my friend, Deborah Scher's daughter, Isabel--who was the co-ordinator of the program and is very soon off to Rice University- where I know she will excel.
I found myself in the picture!!
my smile is a little too big haha

Too often, society's first impulse is to make decisions on their behalf. But it's a slippery slope from in loco parentis to a denial of basic human rights. Saks has brilliantly argued for more autonomy -- and in many cases for a restoral of basic human dignity
