New Students
New student orientation was this week. Classes began today. I’ve had the opportunity to meet many of the new students, since I’ve been running around the school building all week changing lights and helping with housekeeping and all the other odds and ends that come with working on the ESR maintenance crew the days before school starts.
As I have met the new students, I kept thinking their faces looked familiar. Every person looks like someone I’ve seen before. And when they introduce themselves, I think, I’ve heard that name before somewhere.
Then it hits me. I’m on the admissions committee. I’ve read all of their applications, including their biographies. I’ve seen all of their headshots. If I didn’t recognize them, there’d probably be something wrong with me.
And I walk away feeling rather scatter-brained.
