Who gets to talk to students about exposition?
Who gets to watch his students enact dramas of Ibo proverbs?
Who gets to prattle on about the difference between polygyny and polyandry, explaining the Greek roots and citing examples from personal experience?
Who gets to lead discussion comparing and contrasting Camus' The Plague and Wiesel's Night, despite not having read the former?
I do!
Why?
Because I teach humanities!
Why?
'Cuz the regular teacher is sick.
They might be giants. And I will win regardless.
