Fr. McFadden taught the Freshman English I A.P. class at Bellarmine College
Preparatory.  By the time we passed the class, we were all literate.

Four years later, I took Critical Composition I Honors at Santa Clara
University, where the standard practice was to write in class one day and edit
one anothers' papers the next day.  Fifty to seventy-five percent of what I
edited that quarter and the following quarter would have received a big green
"F" from Fr. McFadden.  

A teacher who cares and exacts high standards makes an immense difference.
