"The educators Extension attracts, as students and as
instructors, are representative of what's truly great about our
educational system. From acquiring state-of-the-art skills in classroom
use of computer technologies to gaining a new understanding of how to
effectively teach diverse student populations, these educators demonstrate
an exemplary love of learning. And it is this enthusiasm that lends
excitement to the teaching/learning process at all levels, from pre-school
through college and adult education."

After completing her B.A. in social
science and teaching in Liberia as a Peace Corps volunteer, Sue Smith
earned her M.A. in education at San Francisco State University. Most of
her career has been centered at UC Berkeley, where she served as a Letters
& Sciences College Advisor, as Assistant Dean to Students, and for 10
years as Chair of Extension's Education Department and Program Director
for writing courses. She now devotes full time to the writing program, and
to developing special programs in science and the humanities.
"The humanities encompass so much of what nourishes
our sense of being and belonging in a world community. From learning
another language to appreciating the language of literature --- or writing
your own publishable story --- the possibilities for thought and study
offered in this section will nourish your inquiring, creative, and
adventurous sensibilities."
