First Day Hang Ups, but Great Students

A busy first day, as usual. I didn't have the last minute students begging to be added that I've had in the past. But one class was in a classroom that is much too small (as in not enough chairs--count people) and I have 10 minutes for lunch (lesson learned--I think they asked me if my schedule was acceptable). But the students seem great. One class meets for the first time tomorrow, but I've already met all of those students. Ask me again once the semester gets rolling, but I think I've got great students this semester.

Two other really cool pieces of news. One, I got a revise and resubmit late on Friday. I looked through the review, and most of it will be really easy to fix. Things like "think about this a little more" or "flesh this out in the discussion." And I need to shorten the paper to get under the page limit. But all very fixable. The second cool news was I got a journal today that included an article of mine. The article had been accepted last fall, but it was cool to see it in print today. Woo Hoo!!!
