Circle of Life

Random 'rantings' of a middle aged medical school professor of physiology that has returned to his 'roots' to find a dream position in a not so dreaming environemnt.

Another Saturday Sunrise

I guess I will kind of miss the Saturday morning 8am class I have this semester. Not the class itself, but it is kind of nice driving into Memphis without so much traffic and it seems that without all the traffic I get more green lights. I can make the commute in 35 minutes or so. And, it is so peaceful on campus on Sat morning. Man, I really got lucky when I got this position. I have a great corner office on the third floor with an awesome view of the sunrise. The tecnology support is above average and with the title of Professor, I have the respect of the other faculty without really having to work for it. I really don't like teaching Micro and I think they are going to stop getting me to do it. I enjoy API, APII a lot, but I had never taught Pathophysiology. Patho has turned out to be very enjoyable to teach. It moves beyond APII to consider all kinds of things that can go wrong with the human body from a systematic view. It is challenging and I find that I have to review a little myself, as I have not been this deep into physio in quite a while. But, the challenge keeps me alert and I think, makes me a better prof.

Got to go now to set up my computer for class. Maybe chat again before I go home this afternoon.

Good day.
