What won’t the team members on the Project do? • Go off the high dive too soon -- in other words, we will not • Rely on an untested system • Expect people to do new work without sufficient preparation and training

What kind of involvement do we seek from the campus? • Enthusiasm or • The benefit of the doubt or • Healthy skepticism • Nevada Barr’s distinction between a skeptic and an embittered person: humor and hope
