Wow, what an honor for Riggs. So proud he's an App Graduate. Inspiring students to become more than they think they are is what teaching is all about. I can name numerous teachers in my life who taught me so much more than the course content. Scores are important but are soon forgotten as one progresses in their career while lesssons learned from an inspiring teacher are remembered for a lifetime. Congratulations Phillip Riggs!!!!
