UPDATE
Hi, this is Victor. Lots going on right now. We just finished lectures this past Wednesday. We have a week to study and exams begin at the end of next week. This is the first week in a long time I have had a little bit of breathing room. All of the lecturing and notes (textbook) writing duties are done. So now it’s just grading. I just finished grading two tests. And I’m going to be grading 3 different final exams another test and a project for which I’m not sure how to start. I think that will benefit the students because the time they told me to take to grade it is not a luxury I have. One of the 3 lecturers for this particular C++ computer programming course said it takes 1 entire day (fully devoted) to grade just one of those computer projects. I’m not sure about that. So we’ll see.
Let’s see. When I wrote last time about people not realizing I accidentally sent an old update, I was referring to people who respond. I was not talking about people who don’t. You have to remember, it’s not natural for me (myself) to respond when I see a group e-mail. So I don’t expect anyone else to. I only respond to them because I know friends in other countries want people to respond because it’s hard when you’re by yourself out somewhere. But for me, I think I only expect a response from personal e-mail. So I was referring to people who do respond—it seemed like those people didn’t notice. I was not at all crying out for a response. But thanks for people who did.
