Their ques路 tioning, their test路taking, and their general enthusiasm for what's going on all reflect their interest and intelllgence." Brother Michael Andrejko, F.S.C.

I try to use a mixture 01 techniques, in the sense that I think that people ought to be able to use their other skills in class. Wrlling should be a skill well路used, and I want to give the students opportunities to ask good questions and answer good questions,"
