Thankfulness Friday - New

One of the best thing about teaching is meeting new groups of students every fall, especially first year students.  I got a good group of freshmen in my Cells class... all 32 of them, bright eyed and bushy tailed, eager to learn.  Most of them have declared Biology majors with intentions of going to medical school.  Some will make it there.  Some will over the course of time decide that they really didn't like science after all.  That's OK.  College is the time to discover.

I've had a good full first week of school.  It started out a little shaky but came around very quickly.  We get Monday off for Labor Day.  It is really the end of the summer.
