As the years move on and our former life is consumed by new concerns - I value the special place we made at CVA even more than I would have expected. Here is an old photo that tells a story of a faculty with humor, commitment and love for what they did and those they worked with! We were preparing for new students. Don't you love it? Maria put it together on the spot - I certainly did not have the where-with-all to think of these things! Kurt Nordwell, Phillip Ogle, Maria Santiago and me.....I think this was taken by Linda Rossi but I could be wrong....

The last group of CVA FND students from our final semester graduated this weekend from MCAD. I was lucky to be there to cheer them --- and remember where they started and how hard we all worked together. Congratulations to all of you in the that entering class of 2012 on finding your way - what ever direction it was. We remember you! Thank you to the passionate CVA faculty and staff that helped them find their way.

I know that TomO's dog Rowdy was a very favorite mascot to so many of us at CVA for so many years. Even when he 'watered' the three -D studio or barked a people he thought did not belong there -- and sometimes he didn't - we loved him. He was our Foundation Department mascot, a lovely big black wonderful dog, who loved us and loved life. To those of you who cared - Rowdy pass ed away this week. Much to the sadness of our dear Tom and his partner Lynn and to those of us who loved to see this dog run, jump, be a great friend.

Though we don't have a college anymore, we are still a community. I know how much Anne White touched all of your lives. With sadness and surprise--we did believe that she was superwoman and could win nearly every battle--she will be missed by all. Our hearts go out to all whose lives she touched but especially her loved family and animals. It is certainly a year of surprises.

OK FND students--I guess I am not done posting. Here are a few key reminders as you wrap up at CVA this week. Just so hard to let you all go!

• Grades and Level evaluations will be mailed to your home.
• Only Color work from Steve's class has NOT been returned. Contact Steve if you have not picked this work up. Any other work that has been left at CVA will need to be disposed of next Monday as we prepare to sell the buildings.
• You will need to have a copy of our final transcript sent to your new school from CVA. You MUST request this from our registrar (on line, or in person) by May 15. There is a $4 charge this time. Information on how to get your transcripts from Bethany College in Mankato will be included with your grades in the future.
