favorite class to teach @ SU & why: Probably IDST Aesthetics because it connects everything else I teach into one class.
why (do you like) Schreiner? I've been here since August 1977, so I'd better like it or I've wasted a lot of time... but seriously, I like the small atmosphere, and the academic feeling and the people I work with.
