I just taught a really awesome WR 121 class. There were no sleeping students; the obviously mentally elsewhere managed to keep the IMing to a minimum; and students were engaged and asked really great questions. That generally is enough praise for me—I managed to keep your attention. So when a student came to me at the end of class and handed me this note, I almost fell over:

Allinee,

Thank you so much! You are phenomenal! I learned so much from your presentation. I have a new attitude towards a library now.

WOW—Thanx!

Yay! Librarians love praise.
