"Today I am seeing our logo as teaching me that
the tree, or 'stemma' in latin, is simply what it says it is, a tree
of Involvement in life, of my Involvement in life, and, as such, yes,
Experience Teaches, but Stemma Docet (trees also teach)."
"The "I" as the trunk of the tree of reflection
represents not only involvement, but intelligence as well, the expansion of
intelligence to all of our reflective dimensions of consciousness, being, time and
wholeness; and all of the Positions from which we experience the
Many Ways of Human Knowing (Mental, Behavioral, Individual, and
Collective) are involved. And the Human intelligences are not limited to the
disciplined dialogue between language and thought as in critical
thinking alone, but are inclusive of all of the dialogues within the self
(that can also be raised to a dialogic of discipline): between emotions
and sensations, culture and context, reaction and proaction, the past
and the future, and between knowing the part-whole and the whole-part of
any element of life."
