Hermès is coming to America


Exciting news: I just learned via one of the other Missouri camp instructors that our camp's star student, Hermès, will be traveling from Damyang, South Korea to the U.S. for a four-week visit!

Hermès was one of the students in Karolina's home room class. Since Karolina taught the Fashion class, most of her home room students had designer nicknames. In addition to Hermès, students included Calvin, Versace, and Coco.

If I can swing it, I'd love to road trip to Columbia, MO and have a mini-reunion with this terrific student and some of the Mizzou co-teachers.

The Education of a Native Teacher

I was asked to give a presentation on my trip to Korea as part of the University Libraries' Academic Activities Committee. The PowerPoint slides from the brown bag session can be accessed through the SlideShare site link below.

To view explanatory notes and two video files embedded in the presentation, the user must download the file (and it's pretty large).
