“I'm worried that students will take their obedient place in society and look to become successful cogs in the wheel - let the wheel spin them around as it wants without taking a look at what they're doing. I'm concerned that students not become passive acceptors of the official doctrine that's handed down to them from the White House, the media, textbooks, teachers and preachers.” -Howard Zinn

Who I'd like to meet: New Austin, Texas friends! Mike Birbiglia.
Yes, I did receive that text. Did you meet the owner of that bike? Just curious how they came upon that sticker. How is Austin treating you? Do you have a teaching job yet? This term I am taking Intro to Soc and Ed which involves a 30 hour student observer practicum. This will be my first experience in a school. I'm a little nervous as I am waiting to see which school I am assigned to. I was at the stark house the other day. I got a bitchin' tattoo from Chris. It is right along my collar bone and makes me look hella tough. Hope Austin is treating you well.
Oh well... sometime soon... dammit! Bummer, but the kayak trip just isn't coming together- summer is already getting packed and I can't get any confirmed dates from the Juneau crew.
Hey lady! Jay gets back from Vegas on Saturday night and we'll be getting ready for our trip to CA the following Tuesday, so depending on babysitters and moods we'll see if we or one of us can attend! I'll keep you posted!
