What is there to say?

Dunno. So far this week I've got a large proportion of students in my three MWF classes stewing. I have half a mind to walk into class today and tell them to continue stewing, and walk right back out again. There's a great and sometimes unrecognized value to it.

But I won't. I'll try to walk my students in Intro to Philosophy through the first few turns of the Meno, then try to get the Pro Ethics folks thinking about professionalism as an approach to work that has probably faded away, then tell the honors students more lies.

The fact is, we're tired. Desperately tired. It's been a long week, and getting up before 7 am is, frankly, ridiculous. I hasten to point out that this is not our fault.
