WELCOME EARTH! In the past few days as I was perusing the internet to find background information on the GI Bill, I was struck by how few comprehensive sites existed on the subject. Thus, I would like you to work with 1-3 partners of your choice (!) to create a wikispace page that addresses all of the information I have listed below in an attractive and accessible way. We will have 2 class periods to work on this.
