September Already?!

I’m looking forward to meeting my new students. This website will serve as a daybook and access point for my courses. Most of my course content is accessible through the Moodle.

Powell Coat of Arms

I thought it would be fun to incorporate the coat of arms of my family name into the website. I couldn’t find any high-res clean versions of it so I sourced the individual pieces and assembled it in Adobe Photoshop. I’m quite happy how it turned out, what do you think? Any Powells out there that want a print-quality version, shoot me an email.
