Cold and wet—my favorite day of class this semester. We built lean-tos and had some great discussion in the rain. #ElonEd #COR4240

Today in class we made fairy houses! Hoping it’ll keep me dry when it rains #ElonEd #COR4240

This is obscene.
This is routine.
This is why the world is being murdered.”
