Fri May 06 12:25:54 calculus:

I will miss my calculus class. Professor Alice Iverson was really great. She is a legendary teacher here at North Park -- she is in her 80s and has taught for many, many decades here. Not only has she taught for such a long time, but she's very interested in using computers and modern technology like Mathematica to teach class and work problems that otherwise would be too complicated. I think that's really cool.

I won't miss the long hours of working at it in lieu of other things... but the class was fun and it was a good way to not only knock off some math credits but also get my feet wet in a more laid back environment. And, I finally feel like I atoned somewhat for all my slacking in high school math courses. Let's hear it for As in math!

Thanks.
