Advice on SL from Snow and barbara Learning about grief from

Leigh and Kaznats of SL’s hospice

I learned from SL veterans as I worked on my service

learning project and quests.

Garden of Lost Love

The grief sites I visited demonstrated SL’s power to

help people feel part of a community

Helping Tolomeos find Spanish-speaking SL sites and

residents

Participated in pyschology research study on avatars

In my assignments for LIS 287 I have sought to help others as I became

more comfortable in SL.

about SL grief resources to the bereaved
