Post-Edition: 10.18.07

Shanti Mathew came to class. As she was enjoying our blog (how could she not); the room cleared out.
She and Troxel made small talk from across the room.
But not your typical "saying hi awkwardly to your professor" small talk.
It was warm. Heart-felt. Real conversation. Amazing. Pulled at my emotions. Tears in my eyes, song on my heart.
Turns out his son has his last ever high school soccer game tonight. It takes him an hour to get to the game! What a committed and wonderful father!
What a man. What a scholar. What a father. What a hero.
