Only 16 Days Remain

Countdown is 16 days. At this point, one finishes "just because" and for no other reason or purpose. After May, I hope -- more than anything -- to never set foot on campus again for any reason. I'll even switch medical specialists if I can, to avoid being near campus. I literally feel sick when I'm near the university… I despise it that much.

    Out of curiosity, have you ever considered teaching online courses through a university? ?

    I have considered it, but there are few creative courses online. It is difficult to teach some things without lab / studio time. Most online programs are focused on careers such as teaching, nursing, IT, or business.

    I will search to see how I might fit within an online MFA, but many of those are mixed programs, with a residency requirement for at least one semester.

    Honestly, my current opinion of the humanities is rather low and tainted by my experiences.
