  1. Barbara Oden –

    At the beginning of the class, I really thought I’d wasted my time and money. Who needs to spend ten weeks on CMOS! Well, by the middle of the class I realized this is exactly where EVERY editor needs to be. CMOS is no longer a monster to try to memorize. It is now a very friendly reference. I’m so glad I took the time. Samantha was an excellent instructor who taught me a lot.
