• to do

Certainly this is more for my benefit than for yours, but here’s what now remains before the sabbatical begins:

• Seven teaching days.
• Twelve class sessions.
• Three sessions of office hours.
• Four committee meetings.
• Four meetings with a program administrator.
• Two department dinners.
• One set of Ph.D. orals.
• One faculty forum.
• One faculty meeting.
• One graduate student conference.
• One curriculum revision meetings.
• Nine job candidate campus visits.
• Twenty-five rough drafts of final new media projects.
• Sixteen rough drafts of graduate term papers.
• Sixteen final literary interpretation papers.
• Twenty-five final new media projects.
• Sixteen final graduate term papers.
• One senior thesis draft.
• Two final senior theses.
