Late + short = hectic!

I know that students like our late starts, but they do make for a hectic day: while students start late, teachers start early (for school-wide or departmental meetings), and then all of us have to rush through shortened periods—and a shortened lunch!

I appreciate the goodwill of my students: they deal with the time crunch with equanimity, and their good humour makes a difficult day less frantic.

Thanks, folks!
