Two-thirds

I've gotten finals from about about two thirds of the class. I've put grades in for those folks -- I have no idea if they show up for you right away, or if you have to wait for everyone's to get finished. Anyway, two things:

(1) If you are among the remaining one-third, you know what to do.

(2) Comments will take a while to leak back to you. It's slow work at best, and I decided that getting grades in was more important than getting commenting done. So I'll do a paper or two a day until I'm all caught up, or else I'll have some marathon session and grind through it. Anyway, you'll get something back in some more-or-less reasonable amount of time.

No longer relevant to our current times apparently.

Newsy

I'm about to go join our shiny, new Facebook group but I figured I'd post this here before I do that.

First, thanks to all. Our last official class was fun and something I'll miss and hey, throw in some beer and cute wandering cats and a dog and that's a good night.

My friend Erik (one of the dubiously responsible med students suffering from Ira Glassitis) found this study put out by the University of Maryland today and I thought it was apropos in terms of crafting our own realities. It's also ridiculous and a little scary.

Any an all political leanings aside, this is insane. News is no longer my friends.

At some point, I'll probably invite some more-former-than-you students to join as well.
