It's offical. I will be chaperoning a trip Group 3 of the Oxford Study Abroad trip. Me and Brett Hulst will be the group leaders. we are starting in Vienna, and ending in London. Places we will visit along the way: Rome, Paris, Brussels, Florence, And Zurich. There might be more but those are the ones I am sure about.
The good news is that my boss is letting me go. The Bad news is that she has yet to decide if I have to take vacation or what kind of leave I will be permitted.
The reason I can't just be gone and not take vacation is because now that I get to go, EVERYONE in my offive wants to go on a study abroad trip. And she can't allow 7 people to rotate and go abroad each summer. So, she has to come up with a solution that is fair and that makes people seriosuly think about the trip as a chance to gain professional development, and not a free paid vacation. I can understand that. I'm not happy about it, but Its reasonable.
Now, the program lasts from May 24-June 26th, but I have to leave a few days before (June 24th) because I ahve a program on June 25th that I must be on campus for. (Girl's Night Out, Its an overnight program for girls, and since Jenn Johnson in Special Programs is leaving, I think its important for some continuty of the program that I be there.)
