The Best Class



I was trying to remember the best class from my long stretch in school.

Was it the History of the American Civil War in which Professor Beatson wound up the course by reading Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address and then, overcome by emotion, bursting into tears?

Or Constitutional Law where a chain-smoking Professor Cortner quietly described, between puffs and without the use of notes, arcane details of various cases?

It is difficult to pick only one.

There was, however, a common thread: the instructors all had a passion for their topic.

When you plan your next presentation, don't forget to bring it. Don't forget to show it.
