Hello, and welcome back!
I hope everyone enjoyed the holiday. I read Just Mercy, In the Country We Love, and started Calypso by David Sedaris. I saw Wreck it Ralph with my family and enjoyed watching the results of my apparently horrible choices on Black Mirror: Bandersnatch, the choose-your-own-adventure movie written by Charlie Booker. I also enjoyed finally getting caught up on my subscription of Wired magazine - and the grading, of course.
I know it's a tough sell to go from two weeks off to preparing for finals, but you'll make it! Here are some notes, and the agenda:
