"I have been a Bruce fan since shortly before the Johnstown Flood and I was privileged to attend the Glory Days Symposium in 2005. To paraphrase Rush Limbaugh, the Symposium was an example of "The Way Things Ought To Be." The time spent there was a direct cross of intellectual stimulation and, to paraphrase Brian Wilson. "Fun,Fun.Fun."

The Symposium was truly an experience of personal enrichment as well as professional growth for this educator. I have since incorporated Bruce and, his slice of life affirming American message, into my curriculum. (Bruce Springsteen, Honorary American History Teacher, Duluth Central High School!) So...Bust Into Class and Rockaway the Nights Out Along the Strand...Pack you Pa and pack your Aunt and head on down to Greasy Lake in the Great State of New Jersey and the second Glory Days Symposium. (You will be among good company and kindred spirits.")
