"I've been HTMLing and PSPing since 1997 and grow ever more addicted to both as the months go by. I have found that online classes are the best way to learn because of the sharing of ideas. Another reason I have a fondness for online classes is because it was in one of my first classes that I met my husband and we later migrated from the United States to Holland.

"I feel that I have the best of all worlds since I'm able to teach PSP at VU and help with the HTML classes. It gives me tremendous pleasure to see others grow in their knowledge and feel that I have a small part in it.

"In my spare time I do a little outside web design and have also started a busy message board called thePlace for ongoing discussion on graphics, HTML and everything that goes along with them."

Michele Wills aka Eagle, has been flying through the cyberhalls of VU since she went online in 1997. She began her computing career at Atari Computer Camp in 1982, where she oversaw thirty versions of the game Tron being developed and tennis rackets gathering dust in the closets. "Foreign languages" were also taught at that camp: DOS, Basic, COBOL. Computer code was saved on rolls of paper and the best monitor was the biggest TV you could find.

Today, Michele can be found playing modern-day Tron games and conversing in new foreign languages: HTML, JavaScript and CGI/Perl. She has written a dozen classes for VU over the years and as technology changes, so does she and the curriculum she writes.

"I started at VU in 1998 taking JASC Paint Shop Pro 5 and HTML classes. I got hooked right away and I have been taking classes here ever since to improve my PSP and Web Page skills. I have been part of Eagle's and Rollie's PSP teams for quite awhile now. I also help out by checking new lessons and monitoring the Bulletin Boards each term.

"I have made some great friends here at VU and recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning. I love sharing with others what I have learned here at VU."
