@peterhreynolds in an early celebration of #dotday, my students created three creative, courageous, and collaborative art pieces in class today. One of the experiences invited them to design a series of wooden discs that they’ve hidden all around the Vanderbilt campus.
And the final one gave us a space to name the values we shared as a community and commit to the qualities we continue to bring to it to make it stronger.
#dotday maybe inspired by a children’s book, but I am so grateful for the way it evokes a childlike wonder in us all
I am the lucky professor who gets to teach an honors seminar in #PercyJackson, #Adolescence and #virtue @vupeabody and I have just read 21 perfectly crafted pages on the relationship of free will and fate in the #PJO universe. My students are brilliant. That is all.
Teaching again this Spring, "Percy Jackson and the Quest for Good Demons," the development of virtue in adolescence. I have resources available for any #middleschoolteacher (or #PJO fan.) Happy to share. Lemme know if you'd like a copy! @PercySeries @rickriordan

Forgive me if I speak my native Evangelical for a moment and say it almost feels like the spell is broken, winter is over, and Aslan is on the way.

A favorite Jesuit joke for today's feast of St. Ignatius:
There was a miser who had three sons-- all three became priests. One joined the Dominicans, another the Franciscans, and the third joined the Jesuits.

Why is the @NashvilleScene allowing paid developer shills to write stories as though they're historians? #mourningtheendofindependentjournalism
You know what's fun? When a CM promises to defer a set of highly controversial, neighborhood-eroding bills until "the fall," then slips it in for a vote in July right after budget when no one is looking. #nestoflies
My mother is wearing her sunglasses at 9:28 at night, outside, trying to remember what she wanted to tweet to @BettyBuckley and she’s just decided to wait until she’s sober, in case you were wondering how my Saturday is going.
