This week FLC received a fantastic email from the literacy program at ITT Technical Institute – Miami. We are so glad these amazing students are being recognized for their success.
The email below, from Ida Tomshinsky, the Learning Research Center Librarian at ITT-Tech, has been shared with her permission.
Dear Bryan,
On August 21st 2010, we had the 3rd Annual Tech Fest event. The ITT Writing Champions Award Presentation was a part of this event. We ordered sashes for all three participants, invited their families, and presented the “My Way” essay books in front of a big crowd of our student-faculty body and their family members. All three students were from the Criminal Justice Program at ITT Tech Institute in Miami.
Please enjoy the pictures from the event. Lucia Ruiz on the first picture.

Thank you for being a part of our Literary event!
My Way, the 2010 collection of essays from Florida’s adult learners is available in PDF format online or by order from FLC.
FLC sends congratulations and much applause to the Writing Champion award winners and wishes you all the best for future success!
