This afternoon my daughter, Abbie, finished her last final exam of her first year at George Fox University. She had wanted to go to George Fox and never seriously considered going to any other college.

I’m pleased with the way she has made it her school. Her time on campus since late August can be characterized by new friends, comfortable communication with professors, and feeling at ease in the social, academic, and physical space. Tomorrow morning she will be moving home; and at the same time she will be moving away from home.

Are you by chance related to Ruth Hultman, nee McCracken, of San Jose Monthly Meeting?

Robin,
I'm not aware that I'm related to Ruth Hultman. My McCracken linage goes back to Indiana and Iowa. You might mention to Ruth that my grandmother, Bertha Lawrence McCracken, was a Friends missionary in Cuba.
