SIP Day 55, wearing a black tank and black cotton shorts; writing from the desk in my home office; 75 degrees outside today.
Tonite is the last class session for HIST 301, the environmental history course that I am teaching this semester. This ending feels more somber than usual, given the struggles to stay connected to students this semester. Generally I feel a strong sense of satisfaction at the end of a term, and I’m not sure that I will feel that this year, and I suspect that this feeling is shared by my students.
