An Unforgettable Experience Paper

second year, semester two

*I was in the group for the second year, semester one but did it only voluntarily. Which means I only read the texts assigned and participated in the group. This second semester, I took it for credit! That means I would do the reading, take notes in preparation for our discussions, and write response papers. I also participated in a pen pal program with the kids from Kashia Elementary School.
