Understanding, She Instills Joy of Learning in Students Out of her belief that an understand¬ ing of great literature leads to an understanding of oneself, comes her effort to present that literature in as interesting a manner as possible. Whether a lecture or a discussion or a demonstration of how to arrange an Indian sari , her classes are always unique. But she is just as concerned with what we learn on our own and urges us to search and think inde¬ pendently. Her interest in her students extends outside of the classroom. As Honor Society advisor she serves as an example and inspiration to all stu¬ dents to achieve academically. A true Mustang, she attends the games and supports in spirit the school to which she gives so much of her time.
