Thank you! Like I said I'm very new to this and am just learning all the acronyms you guys use on this forum. OK, for other newbs, here's the link to TESU's PLA assessment:  https://www2.tesu.edu/plasearch.php

Unfortunately, there is NO philosophy.

Respectfully disagree. Here's what three minutes dredged up:
