I will use the tidbit from Georgia Heard in this week's presentation. I have followed her for years and heard her speak many times. I am also a big fan of Kylene Beers and hope to have her at our Long Island Conference in the next couple of years. I am so impressed with the level of student research so thank you for that peek as well.
