Thanks Vernon Area Public Library

Thanks Vernon Area Public Library, originally uploaded by mstephens7.

It was a wonderful experience – thanks to all who attended and to all the students, faculty & staff who made me so comfortable during my stay. A special shout out to Dr. Sam Hastings, the director of the program, for inviting me. She was Interim Dean when I started my PhD at UNT in 2004. Her support and thoughtful advice has been wonderful!
