    Re: Change perception
    Posted by: GT on 5/20/09

    Unfortunately, these concerns were placed in an anonomyous
    survey that went out this year. The soft skills you mentioned
    were also listed in the survey by the teachers that have worked
    with me this year. I know I don't need to dwell so much on the
    negative. I need to use it to improve and move on. However, it
    hurts. Just two more weeks and I can move on to next year.

    Thanks for the support and understanding.
