I've done it again. I've had it. I got a D on my "Outline of Mark." This is really terrible. This course! Oh, what will I ever do if I don't get a C out of it! Religion - of all things! Tonight I saw the show, "Lover Come Back" and then went to the basketball game which we won without any trouble. Jim played a good game. I might come back on the plane after Thanksgiving. I don't want to come back sooner than I have to so maybe I could fly down from Cedar Rapids Sunday night. Park is playing in the national soccer tournament during Thanksgiving vacation.

- ~ About: A 1961-65 Park College Diary ~ As a high school girl and then a college coed in the first half of the 1960s, I wrote nightly entries on the pages of one-year diaries. In January 2010 I began transcribing the entries into a blog and gave each one a title. I grew up on three farms within 30 miles of Iowa City and the University of Iowa with its Iowa Writers' Workshop. As the oldest of four daughters, in my diaries I sometimes referred to my sisters as "the kids" or "the girls." We helped our parents, but we also had good, wholesome fun - a characteristic I took with me to Park. Park is 300 miles southwest of West Chester, Iowa, in Parkville, Missouri, on the Missouri River 10 miles northwest of Kansas City, Missouri, and across the river from Kansas City, Kansas. In 2000 Park College became Park University. Today Park's flagship campus is in Parkville and there are an additional 41 campus centers across the nation. Park was one of the first educational institutions in the United States to offer online learning. My last post was on May 22, 2018. I may be followed on Twitter @BarbaraMcDWhitt.
