Spring Semester almost over...

 Here we are only days away from our second year, (4th Semester) at Blue Ridge!
I'm still feeling a big sense of "being the right place at the right time" here. I love what I'm doing! The days and weeks continue to fly by.

My students continue to inspire me. They are from all over the world, of course, they all speak two or more languages, and almost all of them are working full time jobs while pursuing their degree. I honor their diligence and their commitment to the goal of gaining their degrees, and also their citizenship. Some already have it, and the rest are in pursuit.

Semester final exams begin next week, May 2nd. The Fall Semester will be a virtual "twin" of this one. Classes meeting Monday through Thursday for me.

The last several months have given me some health awakenings and inspired my commitment
to self discipline.
