You took the heat.
There’s one reliable thing about Phoenix: visiting in the summer is the safest way to feel what it would be like in an oven.
The sun’s heat radiates, and you feel a more than warm breeze hit your face.
You will sweat.
It’s a good thing though, that Arizona sun. Vitamin D. A nice tan.
Seems somewhat the same for the Reynolds High School Journalism Institute at the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communications.
Thirty-five teachers from the Nation took the heat this week.
In a fast-paced learning environment, teachers received priceless knowledge from their visit to Phoenix.
Enough information was presented in a variety of ways to equal the power of the sun. Learning it all is a feat to conquer.
There has been perspiration over deadlines.
It was worth it though, that crazy week of Reynolds. Journalism skills only a pro, like Steve Elliott, could lead a teacher through.
On today’s 25th anniversary of 122 degrees of hotness in Phoenix, let’s also commemorate an experience the Reynolds Institute teachers will remember for the next 25 years and beyond.
The sun didn't bother me as much as I thought it would. And guess what? It's gonna be like 106 at home when I return--no reprieve for me. Unlike many however, I luuurve the heat. Bring it on!
ReplyDeleteAloha Lisa,
ReplyDeleteI Agree, not only was their enough information presented to equal the power of the sun, but to get our students motivated and excited about journalism.
