You’d Be On C-SPAN Getting Mic’d Up Too [Video]

Given how little I advertised this, I’m glad so many of you got to watch this interview of me via C-SPAN’s Wasington Journal with Pedro Echevarria (shout-outs to their team):

A few things to note:

  1. I was hoping a student would call in, and that’s exactly what happened. The student who called in wrote to me later. I hope to share her e-mail later on this week.
  2. A few of my friends have commented that I handled the phone questions with calm and cojones. After some of the nonsense I dealt within 24 hours of interview, the phone interviewers were a piece of cake.
  3. My three-year-old got to see me on TV, and told me as much when I got back home. My heart is warm.

If you escaped what I escaped, you’d be on C-SPAN getting mic’d up too. Teach so hard.

Let me know what you think below.
