So after compiling the slide show for the last post and teaching class for a colleague this a.m., I really thought we should all share in some insider humor. Except of course, we are not all insiders are we?

I found myself thinking about that when I originally saw the Glee clip while reading about both prom exclusions for lesbian and gay students and expulsion for trans ones and I found myself thinking it again this a.m. as I told a joke that fell flat on the largely het, largely conservative, students in the “not my department(s)” class. Oh well, at least I get to laugh in my head …
