Last week I really got it done on the grading front.
Capstone students turned in first drafts on Monday--back on Wednesday. Feminist theory students turned in research proposals on Tuesday--back on Thursday. Thursday night, I started reading all of my take-home essay exams. They were done by Saturday at noon.
And the papers were great. I got a lot of outstanding work--work that would have been outstanding anywhere.
Count me a happy professor at the end of last week's grading orgy.

"...work that would have been outstanding anywhere."
If this is truly the case, then why does it need to be said?
Appalachian stereotypes--stereotypes concerning regional campuses everywhere.
Stereotypes that you keep reminding people of by bringing them up. Again, if your students' essays are as good as those of students at UK, Michigan, or Harvard, why does the comparison even need to be made? Rather patronizing, I think.
