I am finally getting our class blog up and running (operational).  Sorry it took so long.  This year has already been quite an adventure.  This blog will be the place where I post (publish) things for you to read and watch.  It will all help you with your English learning and cultural adaptation at SVA.  Here is some information on our classes and textbooks.  You can buy the books in several places, but the easiest is here.
