Yesterday was the first day of school. I teach American Government, a required course, at Grand Rapids Community College. I absolutely love teaching this class–and really like the first day. I had 3 classes yesterday. My challenge is to wake these folks up to their need to be involved, concerned citizens–it’s a joy to occasionally see a light bulb go off in a student–the “ah-ha” moment. America’s biggest problem is unaware, indifferent citizens. I love my job.
