I grew a lot from answering the longer quizzes

and wrestling with the complex essay grading

rubrics… you are not only allowing autistic

people to learn, but actually diminishing the

severity of the illness itself. (Daniel Bergmann)

Fellow students on these forums really

gave the sense that I wasn't just sitting in my

office working on it by myself. The spirit of

cooperation and information sharing has

been far more than any “non-virtual”

course I ever took. (Sanjaya Kumar)

College is a place where a professor’s lecture

notes go straight to the students’ lecture

notes, without passing through

the brains of either.

—Edwin Emery Slosson

—Plutarch

from Ian Kidd's translation of Essays

The mind is not a vessel that

needs filling, but wood that

needs igniting.
