Today’s student is basically no different from the student of yesterday or even tomorrow. In fact, the tools are about the same - a good mind, dedication to the pursuit of education and a willingness to sacrifice some personal pleasures. The physical tools change. Gone are manual typewriters and hand-cranked adding machines. These have been replaced by computers and other new equipment. A good thing left unchanged is the student-teacher relationship and the friendships formed by people of all cultures. Three friends (at right) take time together to pause for a picture. Mike Adams (below) always has time to help his class. Computers (below, right) have entered the classroom to help today’s student with tomorrow’s career.
