It has been a busy week, the school year is winding down for the kids and me. Also there have been a lot of birthday parties and festivities to attend. There were three birthday parties this weekend alone. Next week is commencement, and all the pomp and circumstance that goes with it. For me, commencement is just another part of the rhythm of the school year. For my students it is a very big deal, as you can imagine. It seems like just when I really get to know the students, they are seniors and on their way. It always great to here how those that have graduated are doing. Although it seems like my students from W&L are doing things like going to be lawyers or getting degrees not in theatre. My students from Bradley are all in theatre. Although I think that will change with the new crop of W&L kids. They seem more theatre-y, we’ll see how they do.
