And, a bonus: several students were actually listening this time when again I raised my sword and contradicted the writing on the wall, in our ROTC classroom (in the building named for Tennessee's favorite racist Civil War hero). They captured the moment. Two stand out:
Thanks James, Chelsea, everyone.
And just in case anyone's still confused about what I (speaking for my discipline) really meant to reiterate from Day #1 back in August, with that silly demonstration...
"You don't need to follow me. You don't need to follow anybody. You've got to think for yourselves. You're all different..."
That even goes for the guy who said he doesn't like to think about things and doesn't intend ever to philosophize again. Especially that guy. Like it or not, friend, you're different too.
