How one class grew from the roots of reading and writing to an urban garden that shapes our thinking about food, community and the journey from the field to the table.



In this class, students are encouraged to reflect and blog about what resonates with them during the work we approach each week. Once a week, usually later in the week, my students submit entries, we go over them and see what will get posted. ~Mary Ann D'Urso, Instructor




Back to School

Tiffany Taylor

When I returned back to school from my Easter break, I wasn’t ready to do work. But I knew I had to get out of my comfort zone. I got too comfortable at home watching the morning TV shows like Maury Povich – that’s a funny one. I knew I had to get focused on my work. For me, it was a little hard to get settled in my first class, which is this class -- English. I didn’t forget about the work I was doing – editing audio -- but I had to remember which track I left off on as I am making a story of Anna Quindlen, the journalist and bestselling writer. Then I got focused on my work and picked up on my last track, which Anna was talking about how her daughter looked just like her mother when she wore a black dress. After minutes went by, I was settled in.
