Semester ends quietly

You know the semester is really over when the House empties out. At this point, the only ones here are a few international students, dissertating graduates, and unfortunates whose travel was foiled by the annual blizzard that hits Ithaca around the last day of exams. A few of us will continue to dwell on the premises through the break.

The present blogger will spend the rest of the day duffing around in his jammies.

End of Semester Insanity

It’s been quiet on the blog the past couple of weeks probably because everyone, including myself, is preparing for the end-of-semester push. In terms of the House, we’re going through our peer evaluation process, which happens every semester, and also preparing passover reports. Those reports are not Jewish in any way. It just means that committees write reports that pass over to the new members of the committee the following semester.
