In the fall term, I always feel like anytime after Thanksgiving is sort of a “mad dash” to the end. In the winter term, it’s pretty much whenever we get into April, and the pleasant weather of late makes me feel even more like “oh, aren’t we done yet?” Probably not a good thing, but there it is….
Anyway, as we head into the “mad dash” that is the end of the term and this week’s readings, I wanted to make a couple of annoucements:
- I will be setting up peer review groups Wednesday or so of this week. Because we are at 10 students, I will have two groups of three and one group of four, and I am hoping to set these groups up as fairly as possible. Stay tuned for details.
- Let me remind you also that I am trying to set up an optional but potentially useful get together on Friday at the Corner. See the doodle calendar and vote for all the times that work for you; as of right now, the favored time seems to be 6 pm, but again, whatever gets the most votes.
- Oh, and last but not least, I am also of course very willing to meet with you individually about your project or just about anything else. Let me know and we’ll set up an appointment!
I don’t think I’m going to make it back from the conference in time to join you all at Corner. I’m sad I’m missing this last gathering! Maybe we could all meet for an informal celebratory gathering on/after the 23rd? Lots of libation consumption will be called for then, no doubt.
i need to check my calender still, but I’m a maybe. I have a half-marathon to run early the next morning and don’t want to temptation of alcohol!
Half-marathon? I’m impressed! I’m going to do the Dexter-Ann Arbor 5 K again (very VERY slowly), and I’ve thought about the 10K but, a half-marathon might be a bit much for me….
Major props to y’all! The only time I’m ever able to run is when it’s to or from something…
I am totally unsure about Friday–there is a possibilty we will be out of town–partly dependent on whether or not I finish my 150 term papers to grade and get this paper pretty well finished! I cannot even respond at this time, because it is so up in the air.
150? Judy, that’s insane! I think you need to clone yourself so you can grade multiple papers at once.
