Hello Bo & Fellow CRC Students, How has the first half of class gone. . .  I have very much enjoyed this 'going back to school' adventure. I have enjoyed the small, informal classroom and interactions with my fellow CRC classmates. I feel comfortable to share and express my piont of view. I appreciate the comments and individual attention from Bo when needed. I have found a new appreciation for school.  Over the years, to keep my Teaching Credentials current, I've taken many college courses. I have been unprepared for most of them and struggled horribly. This College Readiness Course has given me the basic skills and confidence I lacked so that I may be a productive and successful as a college student.  Bo, you are such a giving Teacher. You share your wealth of knowledge with each of us every week and through pou the week in e-mails. You give me encourgaging comments on my homework. You allow me the liberty to be creative with my writing assignments. You are patient when I turn in the incorrect weeks Learning Log. You share heart-felt stories from the past.  I am so thankful I was invited to join this class. I look forward to the remaining half of our class.
