I played that role many times in my career. Sometimes it seems no matter how you strive you soften the feedback, students are overly sensitive to what their professor has to say

Many of the Big Ten schools are great options: Illinois, Michigan, Michigan State, Penn State, Ohio State, Wisconsin, Northwestern. Also, our son went to WashU in St Louis and really blossomed there

Wow! That doesn’t happen on our courts. Everyone is competitive, but very nice

I'll be at UCEA this year--receiving the Scribner Mentoring Award. Hope to see you there! Michelle Young contacted me a few years ago; she and a colleague were considering doing it. She was going to schedule a call with Martha McCarthy and me but that didn't happen. Not sure what her plans are now
