Employment

I will be spending the next two years teaching high school English in St. Louis as part of Teach for America.

I know that the program is not without its controversies, and some teachers in my own family have less than favorable impressions of TFA and its corps members. It will be a challenging two years.

With today's acceptance also comes the elimination of the possibility of viewing many Cornell hockey games over the next couple of years. St. Louis hosted the Frozen Four back in 2007, but aside from that, there isn't much college hockey in the area.

Although difficult, this is a sacrifice I'm more than willing to make for a worthy cause. Let's go Blues.
