Maybe I'll try this out

So, maybe I can use this medium as a means of journaling (since I am lax in writing in the physical form). We'll see if I can be effective in this capacity.

This past week I traveled to Lake Tahoe to attend a doctoral consortium with the AAA (American Accounting Association). Sounds pretty exciting I know, but I was able to meet some awesome individuals and I learned a lot. The attendees at the consortium were one PhD student from about 100 different universities. The highlight of the conference was the use of the term grammatacentric panopticism. Now there is a great word.

Now it is back to the grind though and a continuance of teaching my class. I think the class is going well, and the mid-term scores weren't too shabby. (Though I do question whether it was due to my teaching skills, or their ability to read the text. . . )
