Yakkity yak, don’t talk back.
6 Dec
As of tonight, I’m done with classes for this quarter. It was my most enjoyable quarter so far — all the classes were, at times, intellectually stimulating, and one was consistently oustanding. I think I’ll get good grades, and my face never broke out from the stress. I wrote the best paper of my life, and I’m considering trying to publish two articles.
My change management course this quarter was the best class I’ve taken in graduate school. It’s one of the best courses I’ve taken in college (and I had some amazing undergraduate professors). The reason I’m going out of my way to state this is that my professor is 27 years old. 27! Born in 1979. He’s published seven books and over 100 journal articles. And he makes most of the other faculty members — many of whom who have been doing this for over 20 years — look like complete amateurs.
Crazy.

KB,
I want to hear more. I want to be THAT professor for students. What was so good?
Very very cool about the article possibilities. What was the great paper about? You know a nerd in KS who just might like to read it for fun….
Congratulations!
Awesome! Enjoy your holiday break.
I desperately need that Change Management class. We are going to approach that time in our project this year and every time we hit that stage my eyes glaze over because I have a history of being “oh come one, just get with the game” when really I need to…ahem…manage change. I still need to read the articles you sent me. I would love to read your papers.
Great class. GREAT. If you want I can send you all the articles. You have time for about 750 pages of dense business reading, right?
