Teaching

“My job is to listen hard and to talk with students as a colleague, as a fellow seeker of knowledge and understanding–and to give the best advice I can offer if it is asked for, but mostly, mainly, to listen and to take the time to respect the ideas presented. They are often a great gift.” — Andrea Lunsford
