Association for Experiential Education ~ 2007 International Conference,
Little Rock, AR
This page is a way to display a few memories from this years conference and mostly provide highlights from the Kurt
Hahn Address. Kurt Hahn Award is "presented annually at the conference to honor the exceptional people who make a substantial contribution
to experiential education for a significant length of time." Thanks to the AEE Staff, Board of Directors,
and Host Committee for an amazing week!
I had the honor and pleasure of delivering the Kurt
Hahn Address this year ~ And, what made it even more special was being introduced by my dear friend, Sky Gray (Executive Director,
Santa Fe Mountain Center):

"A thread that ran through Nina's address, and through all of her
work, are the issues of social justice and multiculturalism. I can't think of anyone I know who 'walks her talk' about these
issues more passionately than Nina and she did so once again in her address. What is so wonderful about Nina is her ability
to challenge people, and I mean really put you on the spot about whether you are addressing critical issues, and still do
it with a smile on her face and real joy in her heart about working for change. Congratulations to Nina for being selected
as this year's Kurt Hahn Address recipient and for all her great work." ~ Rick Curtis, Director of the Outdoor Action Program at Princeton University
I love it that my ol' pal, Cheryl Schwartz, popped in from Tucson for this talk and to see
some of her buddies as well. Thanks for the fun little poster, Schwartz!
