Graduated

What we learn with pleasure, we never forget.

I like to think that most of my students learn with pleasure. Based on my course evaluations there is usually one who does not. It makes me sad that they don't have more pleasure in their lives, but when you bring negativity into the classroom, negativity is what you're likely to take away.

When you bring positivity into the classroom in the form of Rice Krispie Treats, you're likely to take away fewer Rice Krispie Treats. Ironically, even the negative student might take away a Rice Krispie Treats. I guess maybe my presumption in the first paragraph is wrong. At least when Rice Krispie Treats are involved.
