The End of An Experiment . . .

Some of you already know that I have dropped out of school, withdrawing from UTA this past spring.  The reasons are complicated, but suffice it to say that I had dug myself into a hole from which I decided it was not worth expending the effort to remove myself in order to continue.  Mostly this can be attributed to my own dislike for the current emphasis on critical theory, much of which I find difficult to believe. The situation was not improved by the changing in midstream of some rules about participating in the program.

I enjoyed much my experiences at UTA, especially meeting and dealing with smart, young people and engaging professors.  With one exception, I was treated with consideration and friendliness by my fellow students and my teachers, and I remember them with fondness.  But that chapter is closed; it was an experiment that failed.  Keep watching for information about the next chapter.
