�elcome to our Back toSchool issue . If there ’ s one piece of wisdom I ’ ve picked up over the last year , it ’ s “ The more you know , the more you know you don ’ t know .” It ’ s a quote that ’ s been attributed to Aristotle , Einstein , Lao-Tse and perhaps others , and they were all correct . Education begins when you ’ re young , but it never ends .
Being the editor of �a�ne �aga�ine gives me the privilege of learning about an endless array of subjects . I didn ’ t know how striking the artworks installed in
�INDY the Laurelwood Arboretum S�HWEI�H HANDLER
Sculpture Trail look until Philip DeVencentis wrote about them in “ Art in the Park .” Iwasn ’ t familiar with William Paterson �niversity ’ s greatSocial Justice Leadership Badge program , in which students take part inmulticultural activities and discuss them together — a much-needed and easily replicable initiative that increases awarenessofdiversity , and makes certified participants attractive to employers . And Iwasn ’ t aware that the �ew York Giants promoted Wayne Hills graduate Ashley Lynn � “ Den Mother to the �ew York Giants ” � to be the first woman to serve as their Director of Player Engagement .
Of course , there ’ snoshortage of interesting people , places and events toget to know about in the Wayne area . That ’ s what life isabout� live and learn ! ■
