It's our last week of Conversation Circle for Spring 2026. We have had great groups of enthusiastic and dedicated ELA students this semester. It has truly been a pleasure to work with them as they improve their speaking skills and gain confidence in their abilities. And we have three more sessions to go, all related to a fun topic--summer recreation!

WRSA is rolling out the red carpet for ANOTHER coach joining the team! Welcome, Brian Jacob! Brian is a lifelong educator who has an MA in English with an emphasis in writing, rhetoric, and media. Brian has taught numerous writing, literature, film, and media courses including English 1101, 1102, 1135, and 1154 at College of DuPage. He believes that writing and communication is a series of ongoing conversations that can take place anywhere that curiosity is encouraged to roam free. He is looking forward to having these kinds of conversations with the wonderfully diverse students at COD. 🙂

Does this wacky crew know how to make their shark-loving Assistant Director feel special on her birthday or what?! Most days in WRSA are fun, but today was extra fin-tastic! 😉
