Yesterday a student came in and changed the ending of my whole semester. Said that he was doing the exam, and suddenly it hit him and he had to stop writing and talk to me to get perspective. He knew the material, but he needed to find out why he engaged in leadership a certain way. This is why I teach. I am not concerned about the regurgitation of the information. If the content produces a new schema, impacts your life and causes you to wrestle with previous notions, then we are learning and growing. We had a good discussion about not looking for the easy degree, but returning to a point in which we sought education for enrichment and a love of learning. It is refreshing to have students who are still willing to push back against the utilitarian idea of education. #Inspiration
