You'll find the Flinn Scholars community in every nook and cranny of the Internet.

For starters, visit the Flinn Foundation page on Facebook, follow @flinnscholars on Twitter, and--if you're a Scholar yourself--join the Scholars group on LinkedIn.

Want a quick answer to a burning question? You can reach me via email at mellsworth@flinn.org.

And who is this writing, anyway? Since 2007, I've been a part of the Flinn Foundation's communications team, writing about all of the Foundation's initiatives, including the Flinn Scholars.

I'm also a Flinn Scholar alum myself, from the class of 1993. After my undergraduate years in Arizona, I completed an MFA in creative writing at George Mason University in Virginia. Now and then, I do type things not entirely true.

"You are going to have fun"

The above promise from Sean Aiken ('02) appears in this article from the Daily Wildcat.

Read the Tucson Citizen's article at your peril--Sean says he was a little sorta kinda misquoted. Although... that's exactly what the rock stars in "Almost Famous" said, too, and we know they were just embarrassed by the publicity about their leaps from rain gutters into swimming pools.

Anyway, the occasion of this second Aiken post in less than 18 days is the imminent Club Crawl, happening in Tucson this Saturday night.

Sean's band, Doubletop, plays at 9pm on the Bookmans/Mountain stage. That gives you plenty of time to get over to the Rialto Theatre by 11pm, when They Might Be Giants takes the stage to sing about the alphabet. Or Turkey. Or who knows what.
