A grateful shoutout to my students this morning.
As I wait for a tow on the side of the road of my commute, they scheduled and recorded a Zoom meeting in which they delivered and recorded their presentations.

I'm not sure I can get down with slamming Bernie on the boarder.

Purple Heart recipient kills civilians.
My spouse is visiting Southport next week. The restaurant next to this, Provisions, is a family favorite (great fresh seafood).

Sophomore year, computer applications class.
I was composing a newsletter to a roleplaying group I led.
Everything stopped as we tried to make meaning out of what happened, and I poured it into the newsletter.
The next week we watched newscasts in every class <1/2>

We discussed Hill-Collin's "What is Intersectionality" today in my WRT class.
Despite this recently being described as no-no terminology for the democratic party, students were excited to engage in the framework.

A student over the weekend emailed to ask if I could follow up on contextualizing their grade for Cal Tech admissions.
I agreed, checked my records to refresh myself, then wrote about how the C- was a snapshot of course performance in a truncated session. <1/3>
