A Final Blog

I know our last blog isn't due until Wednesday or something like that; but as we all know, this week is going to be one big blur so I wanted to just take a minute to post something so it doesn't look like I'm neglecting the blog.

Firstly, I want to say that I'm looking forward do reading through most of these final projects.  Unfortunately, I probably won't get through them all until well into May just because of the volume of work as well as the rest of the work I have to get done by the end of the semester.  I wish I had more time to interact with them before the semester is over, but it will all get done in due time.  I'm particularly excited to look through Sonja's comparison of Shakespeare and physics.  The analogy is something which, I'm sure, hasn't seen a lot of attention so I'm looking forward to seeing what she should do with that.  Having spent three semesters in the Cell Biology/Neuroscience department (and ultimately leaving because the scope of the studies was too narrow for my liking) I always get excited to see how science and literature coincide, besides the obvious, as Frederick Turner pointed out (and I realized a long time ago), that literature encompasses all forms of sciences all the way down to mathematics.  I like to see the way most sciences and scientists approach literature, and watch most of them fall short in their analyses.

I guess that was all I had on my mind!

Thanks for the great semester, Dr. Sexson.  See you in the Fall!
