On Friday, a university committee I sit on had to vote in a new chair. And of course we voted in the member who was on an intercontinental flight home for the holidays.

@academicchatter @leighms Exactly. First words out of my mouth: “Well by tradition we should vote in the person not here.” Everyone agreed.

Responding to a post I saw from someone on the -
I don’t care what your associate dean or department chair tells you: you have to rest. Not half-hour cat nap. Rest for a whole day. You need to do what you like. You need to walk in fresh air. You need to see friends and family. In the long run, it will help you, particularly in the final stretch.

To those wondering how my Halloween Pavlovian toss the students a candy bar when they speak experiment went: pretty much the same in both classes.
First 2 students were all “what is going on?” w/ 1 even doing the Pip from LoTR gazing up into the Heavens. The 3rd student then tested the theory that talking generated candy. Once that proved successful, the floodgates opened up.

Trying a Pavlovian experiment with my students today. I will toss a candy bar to anyone who speaks. Let’s see if they catch on and if this will encourage greater class participation.

I’ll get more hepped up about operating systems when more people get hepped up about quarto versus folio.

Now this is how we should handle requests for extensions on papers, tests, etc.

Upon reflection, the wise career move may have been to give up teaching and start a meth lab.
