[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can share a quick one from when I was in school. After a massive blizzard, my car’s battery had died. I had no idea how to deal with it, but I knew my prof was a car guy. So I asked him about it after class and he was like “let’s go take a look at it”. So we went over to the car, he pulled the battery, took it home, and charged it up for me. This was obviously not a part of his job description or requirements, but he wanted to help me out.

The warmth of a community isn’t just an in-the-classroom thing. It’s all the interactions — big and little — that make up the relationships between people.

Oh, another one. One of our beloved cafeteria ladies had cancer, and we hosted a benefit concert to raise funds (I think around $6,000?) to help her family with medical bills.

It’s like living in a neighborhood with friendly neighbors you can call on when you need help, or who you can help when they need it. Could you live in a neighborhood where people don’t help one another? Sure? But if given the option, I know which one I’d rather live in.[/quote]

This is good to read. I hope your school has not changed and is still as supportive! [/quote]
