Faculty meeting at the art school.

A few weeks ago there was an all-staff meeting at the art school: the president presented the next 4-year plan, then someone gave a faculty update, and then someone gave a presentation on a new minor degree program.

After that was over, the last presenter was like, “And now I’d like to read a poem, since poetry should be everywhere, and should be fully integrated into our lives.”

Then, he read a poem, and the entire audience nodded their heads while he read it, and then burst into applause when it was over.

At that point, the meeting ended, and the reception began.
