To save me from myself, I’m going to announce a one- or two-week hiatus from blogging. I have about six hundred pages of papers to grade, final exams to write (and grade), a summer online course to create, etc., etc. Put it all together and… Well, it’s hard to view my writing a single word for this blog as anything but procrastinating on some other responsibility.
In the meantime, check out the excellent blogs listed under my “Recommended Links” tab, or check out a few of my own underviewed posts from this spring (or, for us Minnesotans, “spring”) perhaps worthy of a second look:
