Today's blog will not be as intellectual as others... my apologies...

First, I would like to comment on my utter disgust with the NYC Public School systems. How can they hire a smashingly great, new teacher (moi), guarantee me a job, and then tell me I'm "fired." Ewww. Is there no justice? So now, I am left to wander the street of New York for another job. I'll keep you posted on that progress.

Second, I was truly impressed by the different thinking patterns occuring in class today through the paper introductions. It was amazing to see the different kinds of routes we all took when relating philosophy to music education through our experiences. All of you really had such thoughtful ideas that I hadn't thought of before you had said, and these thought-provoking ideas have led me to reconsult our texts to see things in more ways. So thank you.

It has been such a pleasure to work with all of you these past three weeks. I'm so looking forward to seeing you at O Passo. Be well and happy writing!!!
