quality education

Undergrad on a cellphone, Kerckhoff coffeehouse, UCLA:

(Pause)

"The problem is we have to stay within the theory, sort of."

I had a Danish there, right before my meeting with David Kaplan which took place on the terrace outside. So you're ruining all of the idyllic thoughts I would have been having had I not already done this once. (In my previous department, the straw was when I found out that the "weeder" class for the computer science major was ... passing calculus.)

You must learn to hear undergrads without hearing them, grasshopper. Your idyll will remain undisturbed. Become one with your pastry item.

Whenever you're back on campus, drop me a line....
