It began with a brainstorming session between Jim Elniski, Director of first-Year programs at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and Mary Stewart, head of the core program at Florida State University. We decided to bring together Foundations faculty and administrators from around the country for an intensive discussion of problems and possible solutions.
As an experimental format, we deliberately limited the size to twenty-five participants. The participants found the Thinktank format substantial and inspiring, and we concluded with a discussion of future Thinktank possibilities, including a session in 2007 specifically devoted to critiques, critical thinking, and critical theory.
I hope we can generate a whole series of “Thinktanks” around the country during 2008, the year between conferences. You can download the notes on the home page of the blog.
