Steve

I remember you mentioning your parents' and grand parents on the other board, if your students know about your own background and that you didn't have an easy time or come from a family that took college education for granted, it must help those who don't immediately feel that they belong in that environment.

In a way I thought it was a pity that this discussion hadn't take place at Indianz.com, as that board was public and perhaps young people reading might have found the thoughts raised here helpful, if they are considering their own education and future plans.

I also thought it was a pity Risi couldn't join in, as she obviusly has so much interest and experience in education.
