Craig Smith at Free Exchange on Campus just tagged me. I'm it--yay! Uh oh--now I have to live up to Dr. Crazy's inspiring example. With two girls still on antibiotics and an office move happening tomorrow, it's going to be a little while before my CitizenSE Teaching Manifesto is ready for action. Let's see if I can finish it before my taggees do:
A White Bear [Update 1/16/08: damn!]
Rob MacDougall
Marc Bousquet
Jennifer [Update 1/25/08: sweet!]
The Hobgoblin
[Update 1/22/08: Did it! Or at least started it.]
[Update 1/30/08: My tags have no power on men! Maybe a look at the list of contributors will inspire you all!]

Trying to Make "White-Blindness" a Thing (Again)
I originally wrote this piece on "white-blindness" back in the mid-1990s when I was a grad student—and it shows—but it's stra...

Hey, you tagged me before completing the meme yourself. Can you do that?
We're all about the innovation here at CitizenSE!
Speaking of procrastination, I tried to email you about this google map of Weird America but your OItNN mailbox was full! Here's the link.
And while I'm using blogger to substitute for email, was I right about that January thaw, or what? I would have contacted you, but the girls have been sick all year....
I was skeptical about the January thaw, but you're right, you totally called it.
Of course, it's long gone now. I wonder if it bothers Al Gore that popular awareness/discussion of global warming is so closely tied to highly specific perturbations of the weather. Last week everybody around here was talking about the greenhouse effect, "global weirding," etc. - now we're too bundled up to make out what anyone is saying.
Hope the girls are feeling better. Our stars will align for a meet-up eventually.
Hey Thanks--I just checked in at Tenured Radical and then looked at your blog and I promise to try to live up to your amazing post, because after all, as a golfer and esp. someone who LOVES golf, to compare teaching lit to golf is such a fantastic analogy! Hopefully I'll fulfill my "assignment" tomorrow!
Ok, I just did it--you can check my response out at www.mixedraceamerica.blogspot.com
Damn! I don't even know my own address, here we go again:
