This Polyphony column appears in two parts. The first part provides some personal reflections on the beginning of a new teaching year. The second section comes as a result of questions and feedback from the April/May Polyphony column on "Art as Process." In it we try to face some issues we all encounter in authentically allowing our teaching and philosophy to deal with art as process. Next month, we will return to a question-and-answer format, and I invite your questions and comments on that and future columns.
