02 Sep Honor Your Playfulness
I’m “honored” to be giving the keynote at the 2016 North Carolina Honors Association (NCHA) Conference on October 7th. The two-day event is hosted by Lloyd International Honors College on the campus of The University of North Carolina at Greensboro. This year’s theme is “Innovations in Pedagogy, Research, and Learning: Using Play, Performance, and Improvisation” and I’m titling my presentation, “Honor Your Playfulness.”

Posted at 17:52h, 06 SeptemberPlayfulness brings joy. Joy is a basic part of our humanness, and it is a Divine trait; but there are some who denigrate joy and seek to eliminate it. The spark of learning and, with it, joy, is dimmed when the adversaries of education and life act. Playfulness can be progress, but progress moves against those who prefer domination. The road collision that severely injured a comedian, recently, may be considered an example of the effort to mitigate joy. The tension is still ongoing.
