Today,a high school student and his father were making a campus visit. I bumped into them purely by chance. It turns out the father had been a Calculus student of mine during my first semester of college teaching years ago.
He had felt badly about how mediocre his performance had been, and how he had been unnerved by how hard the course was. I responded by telling him that as a new faculty member, I had been surprised at what a high-level textbook the department was using. I told him that I agreed that the course was insanely hard, and that we made big changes soon afterwards.
He said, "After all those years -- validation!'.
It was a good conversation.

@Musicman what’s the class about, and you should have an end of the term party or go out with the group and exchange contact information so you can stay in touch

@Ghostinthemachine The class will end this Friday. Next Tuesday we have the party scheduled. One of our class members is a retired executive Chef and another owned her own bakery so I am expecting good eats. A couple of the other girls are really into cooking. They all want to get together and cook with Van, the retired Chef. The class is to become a Stephens Minister. We will be highly trained to help people through life's problems. The class was developed by a Psychiatrist and a Clinical Counselor. We definitely have a list of everyone's name, phone number and email address.
