Overall Experience

I thoroughly enjoyed this class. Other than student discipline, hiring and firing may be the principal's most important job. I really liked the volume of experiences Dr. Closen had to share with us (23 good, 23 bad in the end). All of his stories showed that there is no right, no wrong answer for every question. What might be right in one situation is not necessarily right in another.

I could not agree with you more. The style of presentation that Dr. Closen uses is one that will benefit us for years to come. We can remember the situations he told us about and give us, not neccessarily the right approach, but a different approach that we might not have thought of.
