Well, our class is over. It has been quite a journey from July to now. Reflecting back illustrates many wonderful things to me. I have seen you grow from high school students into young college students. You have intergrated yourself nicely into the Rider Community. I am proud of how many of you are already active in so many Rider activities and clubs. Many of you have worked hard this semester and have applied the coursework with thoughtful effort. It is my desire that you will hold on to these speech skills and continue to apply them in all your coursework. I am here if you need someone to talk to or help in completing an assignment, whatever. Please touch base with me and let me know how things are going....and, I especially want to hear about your future success stories as I know that there will be many of them. I will miss seeing your faces and talking to you so please stay in touch. I wish the best to you all, and Happy Holidays. (And, keep adding to your virtual portfolios, I will be checking back on them and showing them off to others!)
