Apologies

• I was working on the list of stuff you learned in this class at about 12:30 today, trying to finish it and today's outline by 1:15, when I have a meeting.
• I realized that that is often my method of preparation for this class.
  • By the time I finish preparing the other two classes at night, I usually don't have enough energy for CS195.
• That priority has also affected my grading in this class.
• I don't know what else to say besides I'm very very sorry.

The Subject Matter of the Course

• I'll ask you to fill out what you thought the subject matter was.
• I'll then reflect on my own perspective.
• You learned a lot and I'm very proud of you.

Final Statements

• We'll end with some statements I stole from my mother.
  • Why the class was special.
  • On being a teacher.
  • Saying goodbye.
