Oregon School of Massage nomination essay

I wrote this short essay to nominate OSM for a massage school makeover with Massage Today
 
What do you feel your school did to make your education
exceed your expectations?
 
I've always joked that I chose the Oregon School of Massage based on the color of its walls; a subtle, calming shade of lavender.  The real reason is much deeper than a coat of paint. The motto of the school is, "Engaging the whole person...body, mind and spirit," and that is in complete alignment with the staff at OSM.  Each staff member, teacher and office staff alike, is focused on creating an environment to fully support the students in their growth and progress while at OSM.
 
Not only does the OSM staff provide an excellent, well-rounded education in massage therapy, they help prepare students for the rigors of a career where ethics and business play a large part.  Going to massage school is challenging in a way conventional school is not.  Each staff member provides a different piece of the picture to support students as we come upon the challenges and opportunities of a body-centered education.
 
At OSM we are challenged to look more deeply at ourselves and at our motivation for becoming massage therapists. The staff at OSM are passionate and supportive in encouraging students to be the best they can be. We come from many different walks of life, we all have different needs in body, mind and spirit; the Oregon School of Massage is a place where you will find the support you need to be the successful massage therapist you want to become.

  1. I also just realized the Massage Connections meetings (usually held at Old Wives' Tale) are extremely helpful, both in topics discussed and as a networking tool. Ray (and all the staff!) put clear intention and action towards creating a fantastic experience at OSM.

  11. With havin so much written content do you ever run into any problems of plagorism
    or copyright infringement? My website has a lot of completely unique content I've either created myself or outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my permission. Do you know any methods to help protect against content from being ripped off? I'd certainly appreciate it.

  12. I don't leave a bunch of comments, but i did some searching and wound up here "Oregon School of Massage nomination essay". And I actually do have a couple of questions for you if it's allright.

    Could it be simply me or does it look like some of the responses look like they are coming
    from brain dead people? :-P And, if you are writing on additional
    sites, I'd like to follow anything fresh you have to post. Would you make a list of every one of your shared pages like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?
