Great for us as teachers

You never know when someone
May catch a dream from you
You never know when a little word
Or something you may do
May open up the windows
Of a mind that seeks the light

The way you live may not matter at all,
But you never know--- It might.

And just in case it could be
That another's life, through you,
Might possibly change for the better
It seems it might be worth a try
At pointing the way to the right
Of course, it may not matter at all,
But then again--- it might.

Free drinks

Last week was another crazy week but one thing that sticks out in our mind is Thursday morning. Mark Marriott( our Social Studies) professor told us all to follow him down to the store at the Sharwan Smith Center and he was buying us all drinks. This isn't something that happens every day and we don't just have a few in the class. He bought drinks or a treat for all 32 of us. I was impressed. I think we are all enjoying his class, and we are actually learning along with it.


Don't you all think that it would be nice if all college professors bought free drinks???? I know in the classes that I have had, I have never had any professor buy drinks for the students.
Thanks, Professor Marriott, ( Mark, Mr. Marriott). We appreciate it.

Something to think about for all of us
