 may I ask the graduate advising gods (or anyone thereof) if CRWT/THEA 301 will be offered in the Spring quarter--I don't see it listed this time round; it's the class that offers "training in pedagogy, and discussion of practical teaching issues"

Carly,

Thank you for saying that. I too have similar frustrations and often feel that 
if I 
don't find out 'insider information' (information which should be widely 
available 
but is not) from my friends who happen to be close friends with various 
teachers, I have no idea what is going on. For example, for those of us 
graduating in the spring, it is extremely vital and necessary for us to know 
when 
our professors are going on sabbatical, so that we can take thesis hours with 
them while we can. Many of the professors are going on sabbatical this year, 
and I have just recently learned that two of the professors on my thesis 
comittee 
will be on sabbatical this spring! This changes my entire schedule around, and 
it 
would have been helpful to know this information as soon as it was decided.  I 
don't particularly think it's the teachers job to inform the listserve when he 
or 
she is going on sabbatical (though it wouldn't take more than a matter of 
seconds) but could SOMEONE please do it? 

It seems as if there is either a person not doing his or her job or some person 
who would or should handle these sorts of things simply missing from the 
department. I too echo Carly's frustrations, and add to them that it almost 
feels 
at times as if one has to shmooz just to find out basic information so that one 
can finish his or her thesis on time and get the correct and decent amount of 
attention paid to his or her writing. 


Kate
