Addendum addendum.

Also also, back when I taught freshman writing, this one graduating senior later told me that the single most useful thing he learned in college was this one technique that I had from my writing training that I didn't even like, but which I had still taught at a seminar and that he had ended up using on pretty much every single paper that he wrote in college, he told me.

From that point on, whenever I taught it, I would tell the kids that I didn't find that technique all that useful, but it was an option to try, and maybe that it'd work for them, like it did for this one student.
