Starting Classes

Well, today is the first day of classes, just as it is at WRA. But, because England is five hours ahead of Ohio, we'll be finished up with day one while Reserve is still in first or second period.

Here at Caterham we'll be getting started on United States politics by looking at the U.S. Constitution in detail and then comparing it to the (largely unwritten) British Constitution. It looks as if I also will be assisting several upper sixth students (approximately equivalent to WRA seniors) in writing research papers on United States history. The research topic involves the evolution of the Civil Rights movement in the U.S. over the period from 1865 to 1968. Should be interesting.
