Heading back to Rwanda

Dr Mulford leaves once again for Rwanda tomorrow morning--the second cohort of entrepreneurship students began studying at our Business Development Center in Kigali about 3 weeks ago. Some unexpected challenges have arisen this time around:  getting Blackboard access for our students seemed to be an almost insurmountable hurdle (but innovation and persistence paid off and we think we've solved the problem--thank you Adam from IT!) ;), and the wonderful location of last semester became unavailable and so we've had to look for another meeting place (seems like we have found an excellent space for classes and office space, but this will have to be confirmed once Dr Mulford gets there in person).

If you haven't seen the report of the first graduating class for the BDC, you should check it out! Then, consider--is there some way you could be involved?

Be in touch!
