A colleague of mine told me that recently she heard Byron McIllenny (I don't think I spelled his last name correctly, but he was the president of the Metropolitan Community College of Denver, Colo) and that he and his wife (an educator/researcher) spoke together and it was inspiring and dynamic. I don't know how to get in touch with him, but maybe other listservers will.
