Well, there is no doubt that we are back into semester time. The campus is thronging with students, not least in the residence blocks, where I -- as a campus warden -- reside alongside them. In the Physics Department itself, I've yet to see the students, as the central University organ increasingly organises campus-wide induction events for them, and I will miss the Departmental undergraduate reception we throw tomorrow. On the other hand, I have actually met some physics students, when going round my residence area last night to chat to the new arrivals. So, I guess that is summer gone - with its three-month window for getting lots of things done. I certainly did things - perhaps even the right things - but of course my to-do list still has quite a few aspirations on it. Never mind! I'll get through them, and enjoy moving back into the time of year when I interact more with the UG students. Special Relativity and introductory computing for me this semester...
The picture is from the halls of residence where I live, showing that over the summer, the University refurbish the rooms. This photo was taken on chair-replacement day.
