Manifesto

I want a class that is not mandatory. Where everyone, including the teacher, wants to be there. Where the teacher's tenure isn't the only reason that get to keep "teaching". A teacher who's enthusiasm for teaching matches my enthusiasm for learning. A class where I don't have to be bound by a predetermined curriculum that doesn't pertain to my personal, professional, or acedemic goals. Where commitment to learning a craft matters more than my ability to make believable excuses. Where I'm not expected to put more effort into some people's critiques than they put into their work. Where the people who don't care simply don't pass. I want a non traditional learning space that still holds people accountable for the work they produce or lack thereof.
