I finally got on here! I have been having server problems and of all days, it would act up now. Anyway, I just wanted to say that this class was tops! Not only did I learn some interesting facts, but it taught me how to critically look at different topics and come to my own conclusions. Christina has been great as a teacher--and I do mean TEACHER. Most people can instruct, but it takes a special person to be able to teach. I felt that she let us come to our own conclusions with gentle nudges in the ways to do that. Thanks, Christina, for making "just another English class" anything but! For those of you who may have forgotten what my paper is about, it is on the myths and realities of changing family values. It has been interesting to find out that the persons who most often use those terms, are politicians. And they usually use "traditional" in front of those words. Needless to say, finding out what people mean when speaking about family values varies by family. It is extremely subjective. But it has given me food for thought and I, too, am almost done with my paper. It will be good to have it completed. It has been great to meet all of you and I hope to have the opportunity to see you all again.Happy Summer!!
