Since Phillip and Paul offered what they are doing with chat, I'd like to
chime in and support the thread of the question so neatly appropriated from
Judy. Apart from some playing about with time ecology, there is a small
project I am doing with some elementary schools in my area. Basically we
are working a three way partnership between lesley college, the tobin
school in cambridge, and lynnfield elementary schools.

Battles between one of the school systems and metco -- a boston
integration/bussing program has created ripples in the partnership, as
Lesley college takes diversity very seriously. Contradictions pop up like
bunnies with free reign. As a sustainable partnership, we've been ok one
minute and not the next. My home page has information about the project
and the communities , and the following urls indicate some of the history
and the interconnections through other institutions.
