Hey, a new teaching gig....

Went to speak with the program director at Jefferson State Community College and was offered a class to teach for the spring semester. I'm excited about the class for two reasons--one, it's in an area I very much enjoy--the societal issues surrounding law and business, and two--it's in my backyard. Almost literally.

The class is taught at the Shelby campus on Valleydale Road, which, I guess if you really stretch it, may be 3 miles from my house. It's a 5:00 - 6:15 class, so it makes for an easy arrival home by 6:30, which is not too late at all.

New class, which means a) I haven't read the materials; b) I haven't prepared any materials; and c) since I haven't taught it before, I'm in for a learning curve. New school for me, so I have to learn all the ins and outs, protocol, etc.

I counted them up today--this will be the 21st different course I have taught, either in college or law school. Maybe I should open my own college.
