I've just finished my last formal class session in Claremont, ever. (Or so I assume.) I still have things to do (review sessions, writing and giving final exams, and of course grading), but I've passed a significant milestone.
Both of my "final classes" today felt very good. Despite my computer issues last week I managed to cover just about everything I'd hoped to in both of them, and I was able to finish up with "fun stuff" in each. My intro physics students got to hear about the history of the universe and about how MRIs work (which they seem to have liked a lot), and my advanced electromagnetism students got to see all of electrodynamics expressed in beautiful relativistic form.
All in all, it was a nice way to wrap up my time here. I'm happy about it. Now I just need to get through the lingering obnoxious bits.
