The end of Spring term, 2011

Spring term is almost over, well except for the grading, the desperate pleas for mercy, and the late submission of papers, and course packs for next term. In all, I think the term went fairly well. My students were a diverse, rather eclectic bunch with lots of upper classmen and also a few entering freshers. Where things became dicey is when students had trouble keeping up with the very fast pace of spring courses. That's always a problem, and unfortunately, some students have problems with the intense concentration of papers.
