In retrospect, it probably wasn’t the best idea to choose this week to have the work study students link-check our research pages and subject guides. With all the government websites down, I’ll have to go back through and double check everything once the legislatures gets its act together.
There is, however, this:
I found this little gem in a study room and it made me laugh. Gosh, I love our students. I mentioned to a student today that I noticed the paper airplane had disappeared. “No problem,” he said, “Just give me a minute and I’ll get a new one up there.” I almost said, “Go for it,” and then I remembered that I’m supposed to be the adult in this situation.
In other news:
- If you’re looking for research on MOOCs, here you go.
- Literary City Guides looks like a cool project. I can vouch for the Ithaca guide for sure.
- Here’s some real talk about academic life, and darned good life advice to boot.
- And, from the department of random, another laugh for your day.
Thanks for linking to my literary city guides!
