Students from both Blacksburg High and Gaffney High visited the Limestone College campus on Wednesday, Oct. 3, as part of the Teacher Cadet Program. 

The students were met by Limestone’s Education Department Pre-service Teachers and faculty members. The primary goal of the Teacher Cadet Program is to encourage academically talented, high-achieving high school students with exemplary interpersonal and leadership skills to consider teaching as a career. An important secondary goal is to develop future community leaders who will become civic advocates for education. 

Limestone College Professor Erin Pushman has recently had two essays published in literary magazines.

 “Through the Windshield (or Why I Did Not Run),” is now in the current issue of Pangyrus. In addition, “Five Minutes” is out in Mutha Magazine in both the print and online editions.

Pangyrus is one of the many literary magazines that makes up Poets & Writers, the nation’s largest nonprofit organization serving creative writers.
