Private Colleges = AMAZING!

Me and faculty members at USM: Sister Mary Pat , Sister Frances, me, and Gretchen Wilbur

The KTOY Team visited 2 private colleges on Monday. Our first stop was at the University of St. Mary in Leavenworth. This Catholic college has a great group of faculty who care deeply for their students and they are sending some really fun students into education. The 3 gentlemen to the left chose the poster "Teaching will be like having a baby because..." and we had a great time hearing about how! We were treated to some great food and got to relax and enjoy the faculty and students after our presentation.

We drove just a little north to visit Benedictine College in Atchison. This is another Catholic college that has an amazing campus with wonderful hills and historic buildings. The students were full of energy - especially the two pictured to the left. Just like in teaching, the Team just feeds off this energy and enthusiasm. A special thanks to the College (and Matthew) for providing us a t-shirt or hoodie to remember BC with! In fact, we were such on a great high from the presentation, we hung around Atchison and did some shopping at the book store and even went downtown. This is one historic town and features the Amelia Earhart Museum.
