Dawn, My math teacher in high school used to tell us that "life is a story problem" when we complained about story problems. She was correct. Giving students a chance to solve problems is very valuable. Jeffrey Schillinger

Making Something Happen

Anna, Thanks for this post. I was able to receive a lot of support from my Director of Career Services when I taught. He made sure current students knew when and where their peers were getting positions. He also encourages empolyers to pop into classes whenever they were on campus. Jeffrey Schillinger
