A Day At University of West Indies


I was awakened by Sister Kelli.  I didn't want to wake up but I had to. The shower wasn't working this morning so I couldn't wash my body off but it was good that I got in the shower the night before. After we got dressed we had a meeting with one of the ladies that we are working with, her name is Sister Pauletta Chevannes. She told us about how she started working with the Dr. Keith and about her program at the School of Education at the University of West Indies. Before we started heading to Kingston, we had to get some of the students from Yallahs High School.  As we were riding to the University of West Indies, I started thinking about my mom and how I miss her so much. We arrived at the University of the West Indies and we started talking to Wale, a.k.a., Brother Tobi about music and dance before one of the professors that work at the School of Education, which was started in 1948, began to talk to us. We started talking about the School of Education and other projects at the University of the West Indies. They have good health programs, and they train their students to be leaders. The students don't have to come on campus to study because they have access on line. They have scholarships for students that have high test scores; it’s very interesting how their lives are based on taking a test.
