They Gladl Learn and Teach . . llAnd he would gladly learn, and gladly teach. These sentiments, ex- pressed in Chaucer's CANTERBURY TALES, where the Oxford Cleric is dis cussed, are those reflected by Parker's faculty. The desire to teach is mag nified by the desire to learn, and this brings an urgency to the realm of academics, and an excitement to the world of physical education that is not limited to this time or this place. It has reverberations that echo throughout the year and into various colleges throughout the country. The Parker faculty represent, collectively, those for whom education is a way to excellence, and that way is contagious. Left: Dione Brooks, Girls' P.E.
