I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about the type of content I would include if I were to be asked to create a class since a lecture that I gave to a group of students in an intro class focused around the 7 Revolutions via Skype earlier this semester. I was asked to create [...]

Okay, so while I can’t “build my dream job” with a start date to match, I can dream, right?  As my first year of graduate school and papers, presentations (did I mention papers?) drift into the rearview, I am beginning to reflect more and more on my last year, the progress I have made, the [...]
