While all my colleagues are in Cbus at NACAC I reminisce over my time at COE in San Diego. So thankful I have the opportunity to develop myself as a professional, and it doesn't hurt that my first national conference was in one of the most amazing places I've ever been.

I never want to go back to Ohio. (at Sunset Cliffs, San Diego)

America: our education system needs to improve!

American education: we need another standardized test and more homework!

Finland: actually, we became one of the worlds' best education systems by getting rid of homework and standardized tests - also, we pay our teachers better than you.

China: same

Belgium: same

American education: better make it two more standardized tests.
