What do I offer my students and the young people I interact with?

I offer my students a commitment to their developement, growth and success.  I offer them empathy and trust. I offer them full license and agency over their respective humanities and their most authentic selves, especially when the world does not.  I offer them questions that stir their curosities, discipline their intellects and incite fires in their souls.  Finally, I offer them a place of love and unconditional support where the world does not.
