So I put up a different journal question regarding a very well known image form the Vietnam War. I am quite pleased with the responses so far. I really want to take the Photo 2 gang in a direction that forces them to be more thoughtful in their work. I want them to communicate something valid, not just take pretty pictures. Recent talks I've had with acquaintances and meeting I've gone to have convinced me that, as a teacher, I need to make sure my students are growing up to be socially and culturally aware. I need to work on that this year.
On another note, Czeps & I met with the daughter of a co-worker this morning. She is a student heavily involved in the Wayne Valley GSA and would like to link up with ours and wanted some ideas. Our fearless president is also working on building a connection with the Montclair GSA. I have a feeling we will soon be a pretty happening club... We may even do a newsletter or have some sort of a web presence... I dream of a day when bullies and homophobes will know they have no home at PV. We are getting there...
