Long Day of Effort



I am a little bit tired today as it was the first day of the semester for my upper division class, endocrinology. It is not that it is so hard, but because these are senior and graduate level students, I really try to put forth an extra effort to get the ball started right by detailing for them in very careful detail ALL the work and effort I expect from them. Included in the list are three traditional papers in the form of a literature critique, two different well fleshed out "research grade" experimental designs, a paper modeling a scientific journal of research they conduct in lab, and of course three tests and a comprehensive final exam.

So, I am not overly wordy tonight and just want to sit back and relax some.
