Am being forced to deal w/boxes of old stuff this weekend. Past Nancy kept ALL papers/things ever but maybe we sent more cards/letters/notes back in the day? Either way, this floppy disk says a lot abt data storage in the 1990s. Initials are NPR & they're stickers. Crap.doc is insightful, I'm sure.

3M floppy disk with various file names written on it from Fall 1997

From yesterday, the Friday before spring break so it was a reasonable question, I guess? The student did make it to class!

White board with “Will [name marked out] be here? And yes with 5 marks under it and no with 7 marks under it.

Finished my reading challenge with nearly 24 hrs to spare! I also read a bunch of short books at the end (thanks for the recs!) & it was a little stressful. I know I could’ve just… not, but that was never going to happen.

Things I’m doing to avoid grading: considering reworking next semester’s music history course based on Sara’s excellent award winning book!

Thanks to Lydia from Elmahaba Center for coming to speak to my students about the music of the Coptic tradition. The center is a fabulous resource for (immigrants in) our city www.elmahabacenter.com
