my roommate and I just had an hour-long conversation about how we want intimacy and friendship so badly that we've both convinced ourselves it is necessary to do with it--
very surreal.

That's a great price, but it's not quite my style, and it would be freaking huge on me (38" chest?!)

I agree with some of his points: interdisciplinary work to examine real problems, more interaction between departments, less hyper-specialization, and the abolition of tenure. However, he assumes that learning is inherently a means to an end, and I disagree with that. I find the ideas of web-based theses and departments called "Water" or "Body" a bit suspect.
It's a difficult topic, how academia should relate to the real world.

I was not trying to exclude you. It would overwhelm me to tell more than one person at once. I don't know how I'll handle tomorrow.

Oh I hate to be a bother, but I am currently writing a sci fi novel called Edge of a Silent Time. And I was curious if you would be willing to proofread for me.
