Dear friends,
You might have picked up on the struggles I've been having with Greek this semester. Those struggles have been reflected in lower grades than I would have liked. I'm really hitting the books and have had several private review sessions with the professor, but it's too soon to forecast how it will turn out. I will say that I got a much better grade on the second hour exam than on the first one, comparatively speaking.

It's spring break. The professors celebrate the week before spring break by loading up the assignments. I had several big ones last week, and next week, when classes resume, will have no fewer than five papers to turn in, as well as an examination on eight theologians.

Time marches on, however, and after spring break there will be but six weeks left in the semester.

Of course, I did take some time off this weekend to watch the very exciting ACC tournament and was quite pleased with the results. That was some seriously good coaching and playing going on. (In TAMPA -- excuse me -- the ACC Tournament belongs in Greensboro, folks.) (And why is the St. Pete Times Forum in Tampa and not across the bay, anyway?)

Anyway. To the books!
Grace and peace,
Beth
