Brain cancer is...
...celebrating bookends.
Today Andi's 23 committed Master's degree candidates presented their projects before colleagues, family and friends.Kim Case (above left) and family were in the audience to watch McKenna Case (above center) present her work in Project Based Learning for English learners.
The Case women are bookends in Andi's professorship. Mom Kim was a student in Andi's first credential cohort, back in 1991. Kim was a phenomenal student and great teacher. She became department faculty long ago, and Andi applauded as Kim defended her doctoral dissertation in recent years. Next semester Kim moves on to the position of Associate Dean in the College of Education.
McKenna--Kim's daughter--presented her master's work today, the year that Andi retired.
Darrell calls McKenna Andi's first (and only) "grand student."
Andi feels fortunate to have started and ended her CSUF professorship with the Case Girls.
