“Ms. Allison, my high school English teacher at a rather uptight, very traditional, all-girls Catholic high school, appeared very prim and proper on the outside, but she had an adventurous spirit. The other girls came from families of ‘breeding,’ and loved the traditions, pomp, and pageantry of it all. I did not. Questioning authority and traditions was not the way to make friends at that school. Ms. Allison encouraged me to challenge the status quo. She told me I was smart and should never let anyone tell me how to think, and that I should never be ashamed or afraid to swim against the current. She allowed me to break rank with the standard curriculum and write my term papers on authors who spoke to my teen angst. Many of the other students shunned her because she was weird. I adored her because not only did she march to her own drummer, she encouraged me to make my own drum and beat it loudly.”
