2 weeks...Do I have what it takes?
Oh man, come Monday, I will have exactly 2 weeks before 160 students are mine (well 3 times a week for an hour) for the semester! I have the distinct honor of serving as an adjunct instructor at UNI this Fall with a high probability of doing it again in the Spring. I have ALWAYS wanted to do this. I've always wanted to go back for my PhD, so I could be a professor, but no one wants to hire someone who gets all three degrees from the same college and let's face it, I'm not moving anywhere. So, I figured it was just a pipe dream. Well, Dr. Howard Barnes in the Family Studies Dept. contacted me this summer and asked if I'd be willing to do this. Almost as if I was doing him the favor!!???!!
I have the syllabus and the supplemental reading packet all done, and the speakers lined up! I'm ready to go. Very excited, but really nervous. Wish me luck. I'm sure I'll share my adventures once I get started.

What an honor! Congrats--you will be a fab teacher.
I had no idea you were doing this until I read this "older blog". That's awsome Cookie Puss!!
