I dedicate this semester to Brittany. The moment when it started to hit me was when I sat in my car, and thought about my own daughter.

I'm happy that somebody is in jail for it. I hope justice will be served.

Brittany was a vibrant and charming young woman with a great outlook on life. She should have lived to be a mother; a grandmother and she had so much vitality to give to others. She was always smiling and bubbly and full of life.

I was always true to her. I am not a predator.

She is an example of why you need to do what you want to do, and be doing that today. For my students I hope they participate in class, get the most they can get out of it and enjoy such a wonderful experience that college provides.
