grey today, snow on the way

come on april.

my planning students didn't read for class today. i anticipated it and had some lecture prepared. using materials and research by the late great rmw about theoretical explanations for the persistent unemployment of young black men. and the culture of poverty thesis. and racial formation in the u.s.

i miss rhonda.

i initiated a haiku competition among the colleagues here on north campus. it has been such fun to receive notes either over the transom or in my inbox.
