Okay, so our exhibit has officially been up for a week and we are still having compliments roll in! We are very proud of it. =) I talked with last year's fellows and they were both very interested in how we got the MAC hooked up/running. Launch day went great--not only did we have library staff come, we also had other students and even some of the Chinese students we interviewed. We gave away Chinese candy and sugared mango, along with apples and oranges. In addition, we made bookmarks and also had pamphlets letting visitors know about all of the Chinese events coming up. I am going to look into trying to post some pictures of the exhibit on this blog.
I have to keep reminding myself that Sindhu and I have only been here a little over a month--it feels like we've been here forever. And that is a NOT a bad thing; we feel home here now. We are meeting/befriending a lot of the library staff and networking with people we probably never would have met outside of this fellowship. I'm finally remembering names with faces and that is an accomplishment, believe me!
Currently we are working on creating new READ posters and we also have our first Diversity Council meeting this afternoon. We are also brainstorming ideas for our next exhibit, which should launch late October/early November. We are open to input, so don't be a stranger!
