Grad School - the good, the bad, the ugly.

[tzikeh]

The good: five classes, five weeks in, I'm maintaining my sanity and keeping up with all the work.

The bad: In American History, while prof. is explaining the various Acts imposed by the Crown, including the Quartering Act: "What's a barracks?"

The ugly: In Teaching English as a Second Language, while prof. is explaining that adult ESL students may not know that they can open bank accounts even if they have no social security # / are undocumented - "EW! Is that safe?! What if they all open bank accounts and the banks fail! Now I'm scared for my money!" (Please note: three undocumented students were sitting in the row in front of the speaker.)
