Testimonials• “Just wanted you to know that I've learned a lot
from the course--and since at 81, I'm what you could call a computer dinosaur, no one is more surprised than I am about that!”
• “Kudos to you and Wake for doing this, and I hope you will offer other courses in the future--how about a short course on desktop publishing? My connection to Wake, by the way, is that my husband was in the first law school class to graduate from the "new" campus. Thanks again.”
