even in the "less than rural areas"

I teach college students at a private Christian university...in a less than rural area.

A student said to me today...regarding a different professor (who had not been helpful in a situation when she may have been)...

"I think she sees me the way I appear...and I'm really very different from what I appear to be"

It hit deep because it was probably a true statement...if we could all be a little more open-minded and less attached to our narrow personal views of others and situations, see past prejudices and outside our own paradigms...we'd all probably hurt at least a little less.

...just sayin'...
