The best thing about teaching...

Ready for Lecture? (Version 2), originally uploaded by wbelac.

Yesterday I got the most wonderful message from a former student at Daemen...

She told me that she developed a project to help teachers in the Ukraine (teach about ways to raise awareness about human trafficking in high schools) and it is based largely on what she learned at Daemen, specifically through the development of her research proposal!!!! (The class I taught)

I felt so good that the work in the class not only inspired her to do this much needed work, but also inspired her to apply for a PhD program in Toronto (and she was accepted!)

I am so happy for her and I am sure she will continue to make a difference in the world. I am also greatful that I have had the opportunity to help her fulfill her dreams...
