At 3:22am on September 21, 2008, Shanice said…: Hi Janea,

I am currently taking fire classes in college, and one of my assignments was to write a 4 page paper on "women in firefighting". I am the only girl in this class so I thought it would be a good topic for me to choose from, so my question is to you is there anyway I could send you a few question so I can add you into my report like an interview. I would greatly appreciate it. My oral report is due on the 9th. Thanks again
