Academic Administration | Alice Clements, September 22, 2017

I must admit that I was a bit nervous about stepping back into the classroom full time after having been retired for three years. I am happy to report that my first month of teaching in the 3-5 science lab has been filled with many unique teaching opportunities, and it has been so rewarding to me already.
