I’m teaching my last class of the quarter tonight, which means the majority of the night will be taken up with paperwork. It has been a great quarter. Most of my students are Meskhetian Turks newly arrived in the US with the help of the International Rescue Committee (IRC). They are highly motivated and enthusiastic students of English; hopefully I’ll be teaching them when fall quarter starts in the next couple of weeks.

I took this picture last year. My friend Rick helped with the cropping.
