Let the summer begin! I finally finished off my grading yesterday. Now the summer opens up before me.
Well, not exactly. I do have a few random independent study papers hiding in my inbox, which has been overflowing for the past week. But I can get them taken care of. And a handful of students still owe me late work, which will come in over the next few days. I'm also teaching a couple of online courses; the first exams from one of those come in next Monday.
At noon today I have a committee meeting, a group pulled together to work on curricular planning for next fall in the face of continuing uncertainty. And this afternoon all faculty have to attend the first of several Zoom sessions devoted to online teaching, to help us prepare for all eventualities moving forward.
Hmmm....
And oh, yes, I just remembered -- rats! -- that today is the deadline for reviewing the department's catalog copy for next year. There is also that long overdue book review that I should have done by next Wednesday (unfortunately, the book--in German--turns out to be not only very long, with tiny print, but also full of lit crit jargon).
As I was saying, the summer opens up before me....
