Sure beats hanging around here talking to Tom Arthur. I'm on campus five days a week . . . In some ways, this is wonderful, but I think, too, that sometimes it costs us collegiality. I do tend to do my major writing at home. On days when I'm not teaching, I wear casual stuff-khaki pants and jeans, a sweater.
Students seem to notice what profs wear.
I guess I wish they paid that much attention to the book. Lunch is always here, in my office, between my eleven o'clock and one o'clock classes. I usually run into the faculty lounge and get a cup o' joe about ten minutes before class and say 'Hi' to my buddies, but that's about it. I'll bet I haven't been off campus for lunch three times in ten years. I never saw snow fall until I moved here.
