Tell me about it. Summer has just flown by!
We start meetings on the 19th-21st, and classes start the first week of September. Wish they'd let me teach online from the beach. The dean let one faculty member who lives 90 minutes away do that when her baby came a month early before classes were over. It worked seemlessly. But they won't allow that except in in special circumstances.
Have a great year! At least Labor Day isn't too far away!

Last night I remembered, right before bed, that we don't get Labor Day off. I'll have to revise my answer on the other thread...I'll be teaching young men to sing and act!

I thought you'd enjoy that.
Here's my special old maid schoolteacher story of the day:
Leadership camp is taking place right now, during preplanning--they invited 53 of the returning cadets (about 1 out of every 6 students this year; usually they invite about a third of the corps) to be part of this. Today I was at a gathering with the teachers and TAC officers (house parents, basically) and one of the new TACs asked me what I taught. I told him about my performing arts class, and that I believe they are some of the best boys on campus. I said something along the lines of, "In fact, I think that 3 of my boys are here for leadership camp. No, 4 of them...wait...5 of them. Five out of my 11 boys are here!"
I went home and thought about it again, and checked with the commandant's office: EIGHT of my 11 returning students--more than two thirds of my class--were invited to leadership camp. That means that they make up more than 15% of the entire leadership corps.
They sing, they act, and now I have outside affirmation that they are the best cadets on campus! I am SO taking them to thespian conference this year!
