From today's emails:

Can you tell it’s finals week?

Comments about the new Oncourse gradebooks:

Several instructors could not figure out how to upload and download the gradebooks, even after a semester of my helping them. Now keep in mind these are Physics Phd candidates and as such rarely know what to do with anything that isn't spherical. I know it is my job to train them, but that is a job I am obviously ill suited to do, even after nearly twenty years of classroom experience.

And a tagline from one of the student's emails:

Some mornings, it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps.
