Hello Former Student!

I'm writing to you because you took a class from me in the past few years at the Art Institute. As of Spring, 2010, I'll not be teaching further classes at AIS for the foreseeable future. (We're parting ways on good terms!) Until now, you've been able to reach my Wikiversity educational resources from my website, but I've decided to delete that link. You can still reach all of those materials here.

If you're interested in what I'm up to in the future (which will include an album in 2010 and a novel in 2011) you can friend my facebook page or drop me an email at info@stevenarntson.info and you'll receive a periodic update about performances, classes, and publications.

If you know any current or former students of mine who might be interested in any of this, please forward this information if you have a moment.

I hope all is well for you. Best! Stevenarntson

Personal Essay
Good draft. The piece has a nice flow to it now, and a clear form. In fact, it seems almost a little too focused right now--I'd like to see it sprawl out a bit more. Whenever I hear about homeless people stealing, I always think of Les Miserables, in which Jean Valjean is arrested for stealing--but he has to steal to survive. In the case of some people who are criminals, should they be stopped, or allowed to do it so they can survive? Especially with regard to coffee, given that coffee moguls are getting rich off of a substance that people are picking for slave wages in foreign countries, there's a global aspect to the situation that is also interesting.
 * Best, Stevenarntson
