Pee My Pants Excited

Later today, I get to have tea with the keynote speaker for graduate commencement, Gail McClure. Tea is always nice--English Departments are classy, especially at Kansas State U.

I've been working on finals so I hadn't read through her resume until this morning. When I read the following line, I fell in love:

"Intermittent Expert, National Science Foundation, Education and Human Resources Arlington, VA. Provide strategic design and guidance to staff and administration related to STEM education" (emphasis mine)

The.

National.
Science.
Foundation.

Also, if you don't know what STEM is, it's an education program for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math.

I really enjoyed making those letters excessively large.

Okay, it's time to get to work. I need to take Naomi's final this morning, and do some grading before I have tea with someone so cool I will be too scared to talk. Awesome.
