Memories of Recruitment Weekend
It’s that time of year, when stomachs are aflutter and thoughts of long-term partnerships are in the air…
That’s right, it’s grad school recruiting season! Our recruitment weekend is near and I am playing my customary role as student host/recruit herder.
I remember my own visit to Pitt/CMU well. The weather was nice, unlike what the recruits this year will be experiencing, on the heels of a trademark Pittsburgh winter storm: half snow-turned-slush, half freezing rain. The interviews themselves went fine. I felt terrible for most of the rest of the time. I had such a rough time of it (much of it my own doing), that sometimes I think it’s a marvel I ever decided to come here.
Mmm…Coffee
During hell month, I drank at least one coffee every day, which was facilitated by the presence of coffee stands right outside all my classrooms.
And so today, I thought I would begin caffeine detox. Cold turkey. No coffee.
