Welcome!
The Periclean Scholars is about to enter its second decade with the induction of the Class of 2016 this April. Currently we have 153 alumni and 74 current Pericleans. Also included in our family are past Mentors, friends of the program, and, perhaps most importantly, a large number of both individual and organizational partners around the world.
As we have grown and evolved over the years, keeping all of the Periclean family connected has been quite a challenge. Various Pericleans and friends I have talked to recently all agree that we can do a mush better job with our “connectivity.” We communicate through email, Twitter, Facebook and elsewhere, but we all agree that we can take our level of communication -and hence our effectivness in keeping our partnershups and outreaches sustainable and vibrant- to a higher level. Hence, this blog.
The main purpose of this blog will be for it to be a “one stop shopping” place for all things Periclean:
- Class updates from both current Classes and alumni Classes and individuals
- Updates and news from partners
- Steering Committee notes
- Class resumes
- News, links, photos and so on that will keep us connected and current with each other
- Updates from the Director, Associate Director and Mentors
If you are interested in being an author on this post, contact me, Crista Arangala or any of the current Steering Committee members. I will be monitoring the site to keep it organized, but we do ask all posters to “categorize” their posts appropriately.
