and.... we're off!!!

OK, one day down. Does this really count for anything, besides counting?

Only one entertaining anecdote to report. In Intermediate Algebra (which differs from Elementary Algebra in that all letters in the alphabet are eligible to be a variable, not just x), two students came up to me before class started to verify that their names were on the roster. They both were and the students had two different responses.

Student A found a seat in the back row.

Student B said, "I am so going to lunch" and walked right out the door.
