**If You Have Free Time** :)

It was wonderful to see and hear all of your thoughts and research from your papers. Yesterday I shared my “backup” presentation in class, and it was the poster illustration.

In my Freshman Seminar class, I wrote on essay on the reasons why Sister Dorothy Stang lived out Hallmark #2 most distinctly through her words and actions because she lived a life dedicated to purpose, service, and the well being of others.
