This is the spot, folks. Your Gladwellian notions and queries can all go here. This is a collegial space where everyone is encouraged to offer thoughtful advice and ideas on each other's work.
In college, this skill is integral in your own personal success. For a more concrete example, I offer the confounding fact that 50% of one of my grad class's grade is comprised of my interactions with my fellow scholars.
So, there you have it.
Mingle!

Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow...Creeps Into this Petty Pace from Day to Day...
...and now I'm quoting Macbeth. It's madness. Computer-inspired madness. My life, I swear.
In any case, at long last, here we are: Blog numero uno for week of Dec 9. A simple one, as I said it would be. It has, as you will see, nothing to do with the title, but then that just provides further insight into the maelstrom that has become my life since the Great Computer Crash of '13.
This response, and your peer responses, is due by Thursday night. Tomorrow (Wednesday for those of you keeping track) I will post a more introspective query and that one will be due by Sunday night.
Onward and upward.
Tis the Season, as today's snow day would indicate. So, in that spirit, I would like you to compose a sort of reverse Christmas (or Hanukkah, Kwanzaa or any celebratory designation) list. I would like you to think about the edifice you inhabit for 5 days a week/7 hours a day. The Oak. El Oako. The Falcon's Nest. Oakcrest High School.
What holiday gift(s) would you like to bestow on our school? Now, since EVERYBODY will undoubtedly refer to the time of year when AC is at a premium, let me just take that off the table right now. So, no gifting us air conditioning. After all his time, it's kinda our thing that we don't have it, am I right? No? Ok. Well, everything else is fair game. Think building-wise, think academics, think demographics, think budgetary, think aesthetics, think faculty, think anything and everything related to our school. What would you like to give the Oak for the holidays? As always, expound on your answer.
