Devastated to discover that there is only one Trekkie among my students, and he hasn't even watched Voyager.

@anna 'If you want to keep attending my lectures and pass this year, I expect you to quote Captain Janeway in every one of the forthcoming ones.'

@ElBeeToots If only this course started 2 weeks earlier, I could've referenced Threshold Day.

Then again: maybe not. Today I was talking about creating children in the context of building search trees, and hadn't clocked anything problematic about that until the entire lecture hall started giggling and a student remarked that they hadn't intended to join a biology class 🤦‍♀️

@anna A quip with 'resistance is futile' or 'it's life, class, but not as you know it' might have worked 😏
