The Youth of Today Are Going To Be Alright

Today was my first day back teaching. I had all of my AP U.S. History classes today, so these students are a cut above the average. But still, I was proud. Almost cried, in fact. In my introductory powerpoint, on the title page, I had this picture...


I asked the class, "who is this?" "Jimi Hendrix" came the glorious chorus. "Where was the picture taken?" At least a handful in each class said "Woodstock." "How long ago was Woodstock?" At least half of each class answered "40 years ago." God bless the children.

P.S.: At least one student in each class could tell me about Altamont.
