(upbeat music)
-: I love what I teach
and I love the idea that the quality of our communication
is linked to the quality of our lives.
And so when I'm teaching, that's what drives me.
So I love the fact that I know that what I'm teaching
when I'm teaching interpersonal, family,
or health communication,
is going to have a significant and lasting impact
on the quality of my students' lives.
That makes teaching so meaningful to me.
