Dear class, although I was not able to make it back to Tulsa in time for class, I admire you for sticking around and carrying on without me. I regret missing Amelia's presentation and the ensuing discussion, as I'm sure she and everyone else had much edifying things to say.
I am proud, furthermore, that you all have taken ownership of this course and of your own learning. You have helped each other navigate very difficult material, and class to me has felt from the beginning as if it were a conversation between a group of intellectually curious and open-minded people interested in similar things.
One of my ultimate goals for you coming out of this class is that you have the confidence and skills learn on your own. Friday proves to me that you are ready for that goal, and I expect that each and every one of you will continue to teach yourselves and others for the rest of your lives.
