Random Thought: A Quickie On Listening

So many of academics pride themselves on being good talkers. But, do they strike the students on being good listeners? You know, it's amazing what students will say to you, what they will share with you, and what they will let you say to them, if you just sincerely and intensely listen to them first.

         Make it a good day.
