You know what's amazing? I was completely kidding about the dress days, but.... Masquerade Mondays? AWESOME IDEA.
School continues. Another class, many familiar faces, another nationally-known instructor who will probably be in history books. Awesome university to go to for this program, and it's one of the top 3 or so in the country. It's interesting learning about a theory that's integral to the field as a whole, and then your next class is with the guy who invented that theory. It's like having a psychology professor say, "Well, before he died Freud and I worked at FSU together. He was a crazy guy; he liked his tea without sugar."
ISSA meeting today. My program (in case you're slow, forgetful, or just a random visiting stranger) is Instructional Systems. I am also a newly appointed treasurer for the Instructional Systems Student Association. I figured that if I'm going to do this school thing full-time, being part of clubs and stuff is a great way to meet people and network.
Although I'm pretty great with numbers (yep, pretty great, indeed), I have yet to see any financial information or files. No complaints from me. I just enjoy being on the board, since I can use my overpowering intellect and undying enthusiasm to bring about vast changes to the political and educational environment that makes up the instructional systems department. (Please be aware of some slight exaggeration in the previous statement). Either way, we're planning an ISSA BBQ for this Saturday at Myer's Park. Previous ISSA incarnations were not terribly active, but one resolution I've made for myself is, if I'm going to be involved in something, it's not going to suck. We'll see how that little venture turns out.
