Had a bit of a blog lapse due to the end of the academic year craziness and currently experiencing a lapse due to beginning of summer craziness. Will it not stop?!? Let us itemize:
End of academic year: after the final push to get any papers out before tenure review I was reminded that, oh yeah, I have STUDENTS I’ve been ignoring! Grade, grade, grade the work that piled up; prep, prep, prep them for their end of term projects/papers/presentations
Evaluate said work; turn in grades; celebrate:
Crash from exhaustion (but still answer their emails inquiring about said grades). And, naturally, graduate some of them:
Finally, get that presentation ready for the conference and, oh, it might be nice to make flight and hotel reservations.
Next up: what ensued in the post graduation frenzy. Hint: it involves this:
Til next time, where upon all mysteries will be resolved!
These all seem like very valid reasons for a blog lapse. I’m a bit curious about your mysteries; is that something connected with Gamelan? I’ve never thought of it as a cult, but I guess I’ll understand in due time!
