Alive!
So I had a novel experience today in the wake of Columbine, Virginia Tech, and other school shootings. A student had scrawled on a bathroom stall something about killing students today in Hickman Hall. That’s where my class is.
After the police carefully inspected my bag, I made it to class to find a intrepid dozen. It was too large a proportion of the class not to continue with class, so I closed the door, pointed out the exit around the corner, and launched into a correction of Jeffery Sachs’ overly sanguine “End of Poverty.”
And it was a good lecture. And we all went home.
