Conseil définitif

Today is the last day of official teaching duties at ESI for this year: the conseil définitif where the grades and status of students, and especially the borderline ones, are discussed.

We'll be meeting all morning, going through all the students year by year.

It's also more or less the 10 month anniversary of my departure from Dublin, Ohio. My contract with Fulbright is up on July 6, but I'll be travelling home on the 4th since flights are a little cheaper that day.

I've cleaned out my office and will be handing back the keys after today's meeting. It's come full circle. And what a year it's been.

This blog will be discontinued as of my departure, as my reintegration into American culture isn't nearly as noteworthy as my discovery of the Moroccan one. Thank you, gentle reader, for following along with me over the past 10 months in my exploration of Library and Information Science (and a lot else) in Morocco. Chukrane. Merci.
