I have to commemorate this moment.

We had fire alarm today in the middle of my undergrad Jefferson & Hamilton seminar.

Huge numbers of people flowed out of the building & crowded outside.

Somehow, the bulk of my class ended up in a little circle with me. And they CONTINUED TO ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT THE READINGS.

This was a major I AM A GOOD TEACHER WITH A GOOD CLASS moment.

I'm going to save that for awhile.

@jbf1755 Same thing happened to me! Summer course, fire alarm, building emptied. We found a shade tree and they just sat on the rocks and the grass. Topic was 3D rotations. No marker board, so a student folded me a paper airplane which turned out to be the ideal teaching tool.

Would do it again anytime. Glad it happened to you.
