Summer conversations: John Groce

You just hit the 2 month mark in Champaign. How have your first 60 days been?
It's been a whirlwind. There's days where you feel like you're drinking water out of a fire hose, to be honest. But it's been good. I get a chance to build something special, and I've really enjoyed getting to know the administration and the people in the community who will be part of that. These caravans have been awesome because you're meeting all kinds of different people in Illini Nation around the state.
We've had a lot of transition in these 60 days, but it's been good. Sometimes, people are resistant to change, but I believe change can lead to growth, and we've seen the changes of the last 60 days as a great opportunity to move our program forward.
