School's In!

I started class today. I've been waiting since I got to this unit and finally got a class. I'm only taking one class, Intro to Sociology, but at least it is something. Sadly, at this pace it will be years before an Associate's degree is complete and they aren't even offering core classes because professors can't be found to teach them.


If the first day is any indication, the rest of the session is going to be a breeze. Maybe a hot, sticky summer kind of breeze because the education building doesn't have any air conditioning yet. The teacher seems smart, but I think she puts on a show of ditzy stupidity to relate better to the inmates. She's hip to much of what goes on in here which I think will help both us and her.

I really hope I can take more classes and perhaps more of them along the lines of a typical liberal arts track like the business classes that are offered. The education is lacking, but at least it's going somewhere.
