I love my job. I really do. I'm grateful for the colleges that have the faith in me to let me teach. I'm grateful for students who come to class eager and interested and ready to learn. And most of all I'm grateful that so many of you have expressed to me in many ways how much you've learned and how much you appreciate the chances you've been given to improve. I've learned a lot as well, as I do every semester, and next semester's students will benefit from what you've taught me. Thank you, class. Enjoy your day (and your long weekend). I'll see you next week.
