I certainly hope I do not embarrass her by offering public praise for her work, but I had the honor this week of attending the celebratory dinner for the students in Muhlenberg College’s Creative Writing Minor. One of my adult students was there along with her parents.
Michelle Saul is one of the English Majors at the Wescoe School of Muhlenberg College, and I have been her advisor and professor for several years now. I am very proud of her for both finishing her degree this year and for having seven of her poems in the Creative Writing Anthology Muhlenberg College 2018.
Michelle is a talented writer, and it was an honor to support her at this dinner.
Michelle — yay!
That’s the kind of thing I like to hear about! Congrats to Michelle.

No Chuck, you haven’t embarrassed me at all. Thank you so much for your continued support throughout my time at Muhlenberg and beyond. I am very touched that you wrote this for me. It makes me want to cry happy tears- which would be a pleasant change for me- and honestly, the honor is mine for having you as my advisor, professor, mentor and friend. I wouldn’t be where I am without you! So thank you for always being my biggest supporter- besides my my mom and dad of course- and for always believing in me, especially in the moments where I wasn’t believing in myself.
