Epilogue to come...

We have been home for a week now. The flight was a harrowing experience of: militant (literally) security at New Delhi airport, nearly 16 hours in the air, 7 hours of waiting around at Newark and a broken ERJ-145 on the way back to Richmond. However, we were treated to a scenic route back to Richmond which included a cruise along the coast on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. I can certainly guess that all of us - Joanne, Brooks, Brandon, Will and myself - crashed HARD when we finally got home. What an experience!

I have more sights, insights and thoughts to share on VCU's second top 12 showing in as many years. The blogging abruptly stopped this time as I suffered from an acute gastro-intestinal illness courtesy and compliments of India. I would like to personally reflect on going to India and what it has meant for our school, our students and myself.

I have received news that this academic year's Imagine Cup competition is going to be so radically different that we, as a school, have just about ZERO hope of repeating our performance. This is regrettable, but not confirmed. When I know more about the coming year's format, I will encourage and coach students to go for it again. However, for now, we can all monitor www.imaginecup.com and see what emerges.

For those interested, watch this space in the days to come for video clips and reflections on India.
