Folks:
I just learned of the accidental death of Dave Watson, who taught ESL at Green River for many years. He died in a freak accident on Mount Rainier. You can read the story here:

I am writing to our adjunct group because Dave was instrumental in helping us to reach out to the ESL instructors. He gave me constant advice, and he helped advertise our group. He organized a meeting I held with several IESL professors.

His death is a great loss to Green River. He cared deeply about social justice.

Cordially, Keith
