The letters to the editor section of The Cooper Point Journal can tell you a lot about the College. There are two letters from 1976 I think deserve special attention. Here's the first one, from Apr. 29:
» "To the Editor: The second letter was by faculty member Craig Carlson, Oct. 7. Why he wrote it isn't really important, since I think it can stand by itself without any explanation: "To the Editor: Carlson, who is unfortunately no longer with us, originally had a huge beard and long hair when he came to TESC. One day his students arrived in class and he didn't show up. As they waited, they started complaining and gossiping about Craig. It turned out he had been there the whole time. Craig had shaved his beard and cut his hair real short and no one recognized him.

Good to read mention of Craig
Submitted by Sarah on Tue, 12/20/2005 - 11:45am.Craig Carlson worked with some students who had gotten disorganized and floaty towards the end of the quarter, I remember Craig encouraging students to be mindful of what they want to do next in life, to fashion their studies to incorporate this, and to be aware of the basics like work and money. In other words, to get real.
