My last class is over, my thesis is nearing completion, and I’m putting the finishing touches on the final issue of Kerux.

On the topic of that publication, we met as a staff one last time this past week, and I marveled that 10 people had stuck with me all year. For my own part, I felt that my administration of the publication was rather ham-handed. But the staff was gracious enough to even congratulate me and make little to do of my many shortcomings and extended absenses of publication. Contrary to what some people will tell you, charity runs deep in the Dutch blood.

The final issue is both critical and reflective; hopefully it will be read for what it is. I am glad to have been a part of it.
