One of My Best Decisions

This popped up in my Memories on Facebook today.

Ten years of service and commitment to Ivy Tech.

When I interviewed with Tom in November 2005, I never thought I would actually leave West Central and start a new career at Ivy Tech.

But I did.

And I am SO glad it all happened.

As I have said before, I grew so much as a person and as an educator.

Teaching online courses.

Creating online courses.

Organizing and eventually teaching a dual credit course so that high school seniors could earn college credit.

Adapting to teaching five classes each week and going to campus only for those classes or for my office hours.

And the people?  So many students.  So many faculty.  So many administrators and office personnel.  So many adjuncts and dual credit personnel.

I wouldn't trade any of it.

Thanks again, Tom, for encouraging me.  For offering me the position originally.  For challenging me each step of the way.

What a great 10 years!
