Hi.  My name is Nathan Fares.  I went to school, K-12, in 3 different states.  I started out elementary school in the great state of Illinios.  I finished up K-6th grade in Homewood Illinios.  7th through 8th grade I was in Santa Fe, New Mexico where my parents moved us so that they could have better jobs.  9th through 12th grade I was in University of San Diego High School in San Diego, California.  My dad got a great offer to move out to San Diego.  So we moved out here to California. 

In my experience with technology I have mainly PC experience.  MAC computers frighten me and I have no clue how to use them.  Frankly, I prefer to us Personal Computers because they can handle Video Games 10 times better than MAC can.  Therefore, I will always be loyal to a PC computer.  Event now, using a MAC I don’t know the controls and they are frankly completely different than a PC computer and much more difficult to learn.  In school,  all I learned on was PC computers and that is all I know how to use. 

When it comes to the mission statement of the College of Education I think it is a fair and politically correct statement.  Now, I am not saying I disagree with it at all.  Actually I agree with it completely.  However, I also think that it does not take into account that out of 100 people there are 100 different approaches to the same issue.  With many politically correct statements it fails to actually make the right choice for individual circumstances.  Therefore, I do think it needs to understand that there are more than one right way to do something.
