The Beginning of the Semester
Full Circle Peak Critique Critique!
No textbooks or course outlines, calendars and plans.
Students running like chickens, headless, with less control.

Classroom changes (last-minute musical chairmanship without pleasant melodies).
My own flop-sweat despite experience, preparation, and sense of humour.
I would not change a damn thing about it!
