weeknotes teaching family museum music books

This Week:

  • It was the last week of classes, and we finished out the year in FLP102 with a discussion of the social and material history of Christmas. We also asked them to do course evaluations and looked at the Discovering Our Place Assignment submissions they put in.
  • I did a lot of Christmas shopping, and some prep work for Hazel’s birthday party.
  • At the Museum, I made some tenative plans for a repatriation trip out to Colorado. I also caught up on some important planning for a future Indigenous residency initiative.
  • We had our last strategic planning meeting of the semester, although sadly without the presence of professor [Brian Alexander]https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/wktv/name/brian-alexander-obituary), who died earlier this week.
  • On a lark, I bought the album “Go Tell it on the Mountain” by WU LYF. So far so good!
  • We went to Dominic’s winter band concert, and Hazel’s rescheduled parent teacher conference meeting. I’m so proud of both of these kiddos.
  • I picked up the Humble Bundle of VE Schwab books, which I’ve heard good things about.
