Last class of the semester is coming up, and I’m looking for an appropriate send off for the students, many of whom have been with me for a year. I usually go with a “don’t forget to write!” type of a goodbye, where I tell them that I hope they’ll contact me if I can be helpful in their careers, or otherwise if they just want to talk. That’s fine and all, and i’ll do it, but I want something splashier.
@johnhenderson a few years ago I made a presentation on “How to keep in touch with your professors” for folks about to graduate about the kind of things we can help with, the kind of things we can’t, what kind of news you should get in touch with, etc. I usually end with that and it seems to be productive? Or at least they like it. Last class is a great vibe.
@charleshaine hey man-just saw this now! Good to hear from you, thanks for the suggestions.
