My life belonged to my kids. (Pictured; Paul, Patti, Peggy, Pia, Pamela). My academic success was to be their roadmap for success. My UCLA schedule and my household organization were already stamped with success; there was no room for the professor’s “Bait and Switch” intrusion.
The students who didn’t look like me took the exam; most did poorly.
They were kids -18, maybe 19 years old.
They didn’t look like me; I was old.
I didn’t take the exam; I did quite well.
With the Department’s assistance, I created my own “Bait and Switch”.
Shirlee – I introduced my daughter (Jenelle) to your work when she was a journalist is high school in 2004. She has since graduated high school, UC-Fullerton, worked 10 years at the Claremont Courier as the Arts and Entertainment Editor, and is now on the Executive Board of Trinity Foster Care for 5 years now. Please know how much your example has shaped her life. Bravo Shirlee
Bravo back to you and your daughter for being part of making a difference in the lives of others. What a compliment you have paid me – introduced your daughter to my work- how blessed I am to have made a positive influence.
