Friday in Växjö

This was a work day. We went to Växjö University -- the builidng is tilted, not the photo --where Ulla still holds a 20% appointment. I used her office while she taught her class.



Just behind the door there are coat hooks and a little safe -- good ideas for the new WCOB building!




We ate lunch in the spacious "coffee room" (complete with dishwasher!)




In the corridor we ran into Bengt-Åke, whom I'd met on an earlier visit. He greeted me with, "Hej Jill! I just saw your article in the Journal of Management Inquiry. It looks very intersting -- I've already put it aside to read." (No photo of beaming Jill)

I worked with Patrick, one of Ulla's doctoral students, on ideas for turning the paper he presented at the DMI conference into an article, before heading to the supermarket (I was in charge of purchasing food for the evening meal) while Ulla continued working.



In the evening, Ulla donned the apron, under the watchful eye of Stella, before a pleasant dinner with Ulla, Karin (Ulla's sister, a physician), and Gunnar (a chemistry professor at Växjö University).
