Back to work
Categories: Personal
Ideally, I would have spent the past few weeks off engaging in reading and writing, perhaps getting ahead for the upcoming semester (which starts January 8th). Of course, little of that happened. I did finish The World is Flat and begin Shame of a Nation, both of which are related, albeit somewhat tangentally, to my scholarship and teaching. I guess Same of a Nation is more than tangential. Anway, I am officially back at work today (even if I am currently working from home). My modest goal for today is to completly redo my CV; my old one was a mess. Tomorrow, I'll get some work done on a grant application that's due in February. Thursday will be my day to revise my syllabi for this semester. Friday morning I meet with the student that's working with me on this grant proposal, then it's off to do something fun for our 5th anniversary. Then, back to the semester at hand on Monday.
I am teaching my normal three sections of 110 and the graduate social foundations course (EDUC 600) which is called Teaching in a Democracy. I really enjoyed that course last spring and am looking forward to teaching it again.
