Session X - Final Discussion

Please feel free to respond to at least one, or as many as all, of the questions below:  How has your perspective on working as a leader in your neighborhood changed as a result of neighborhood university? Why has it changed, and what moments or topics stick out most as you reflect on why your perspective has changed?  Think about one or two things that you felt or knew coming in to Neighborhood U, things that were affirmed as a result of your participation in the class. Why were those things affirmed? What classes or moments proved to be most affirming to these things you have long thought, knew, or understood?  As you emerge from Neighborhood University, how have you been inspired to engage in your neighborhood? Is it a new commitment to a board or organization? A new or different approach? Are you inspired to continue working in the ways you have historically worked? Why are you inspired in these ways?
