Hands On Education

Add comment May 22nd, 2008

In Tuesday’s Register Star, there was a great article talking about East High School students working with the city and other groups to plant trees around their campus. I’ll bet there were several students that came out of that experience with a little more interest in careers in forestry or plants.

It’s amazing how much hands on learning can influence the lives of our youth. I majored in journalism in college after having an experience with TV news when I was a grade schooler. What influenced you to do the job you do today?
