Feces Theses

Hey kids.

I'm in the process of meeting deadlines on my second thesis in as many years. Consequently, I don't have spare time to blog currently. I'll try to post periodically so you're not, you know, sobbing uncontrollably. I miss writing for the fun of it and about topics other than educational strategies.

Today I had a student, an honors student no less, brilliantly tell me, "I don't have any siblings, but my brother does." You wouldn't believe how long it took me to convey to her why that didn't make any sense to me. Finally, she grasped it and said, "You must think I'm stupid, don't you?" Of course not...

I lie to my students every day.
