Sobre IBD

And Gladly Teach looks sardonically at college preparatory education today. Bedeviled by athletic mania, beset by incipient insolvency, beleaguered by lunatic consultants and heretical ?modern churchmen,? St. Lawrence Academy, a typical(?) boarding school, provides both laughs and food for thought.
