...to one of my favorite classes, Constitutional Law. I was lucky enough to have more than one favorite class but this one was a hallmark for me. I've always been drawn to Constitutional issues but Canada's knocked me way off course at first. I slowly found my way and found respect (mostly) for the Canadian Supreme Court's reasonings and commitment to democracy. But more than that, I gained respect for my lively, intelligent professor.
Professor Edinger, thank you for your guidance over the course of the past years, your respect for the law, your humour, your thoughtful reasoning. You have taught me the reward of reading long swaths of reasoning and finding my own way through it. You have taught me that I am more than a student, I am a future lawyer. Your respect for that profession, as well as your advice against the pitfalls, motivate me to see myself as a professional with a responsibility to learn as much as I can.
After our final class, we filled the room with applause as she made her way out. Her inspirational teaching enriched us all.
