At the request of my advanced studies class, I have created a blog.  I am fully aware that it is in desperate need of "spicing up" and has the appearance of a this-is-my-first-attempt-and-I-have-no-clue-what-I'm-doing blog.  I welcome any suggestions on how to make this better, but for now, I hope it serves its purpose of allowing my amazing, intelligent, talented students to communicate their ideas with one another.  Good luck to you, and share away, my friends!
