“We must continually remind students in the classroom that expression of different opinions and dissenting ideas affirms the intellectual process.

To strengthen faith, and sweeten care;
To teach our faint desires to rise,
And bring all heav’n before our eyes.”

“Those that do teach young babes
Do it with gentle means and easy tasks.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
