3 March 2017: "Like how I want to work out but I also like chicken nuggets?" --a student in my ENGL 301 class today as I was doing my best to explain a concept key to deconstruction--that we are all fields of competing identities and ideologies.
Here at Shepherd, we are all somewhat gracefully stumbling towards Spring Break--with a week to go. This kind of comment from a student (which is, I think, a kind of perfect example of that battlefield of conflicting identities, by the way) is going to to help us get there. These kids are pretty amazing.
