WOTD: Grad School

[tem2]

Today's word of the day is "Grad School" because I'm going back for a master's in teaching, starting next week. You may notice fewer posts from me about writing, but you will now find posts about teaching on my new teaching blog.

So, how long exactly until I'm allowed to stop shaving?

LOL! I remember toward the end of the first year in law school, there was obviously a visitor in one of my large classes. She really stuck out because she had her hair done up all nice. At that point, all the law students just washed their hair and combed it and that was it. I didn't bother to even dry my hair. I think a lot of people didn't bother to wash or comb theirs either.

Best of luck in grad school!

Anyone not wearing a baseball cap in my law school class stood out, since it meant they'd taken the time to shower that morning. And you should have seen the goatee I was sporting back then!

Oddly, my grooming improved slightly over the course of grad school. Two things contributed to that: TA evaluations including a "professional appearance" category, and The Year Of Three Crowns getting me to start brushing regularly.
