Recognize. Honor. Encourage.

This blog is for you.
And you.
And you.

Because I like you...

I may like your smile, your laugh.
I may like your incredible swing dance abilities
I may like that you think deeply about...X...
I may just like the fact that your presence in the room makes me want to stay there a little longer.
I may like the way you earnestly love those around you.


Or maybe--sometimes, ok, a lot of the time--you annoy me. And you treat me like you'd treat a sibling. And you act like so high-school. And you like raise your hand like way too much in class.

It doesn't matter because you still do have that smile, that interest, that glow; you are a unique and special addition to this campus.

So, I think you should know...I like that about you.



This blog will feature several new faces each week. Will you please leave lots and lots of comments that will encourage, uplift, and tell someone why they are liked? For Example,

"You have crazy-pretty eyes. I like that about you."

"The comment you made in class today about SoNSo's theory on SuchNSuch was brilliant. You say a lot of brilliant things. I like that about you"

"You are always patient with those around you. I like that about you."

(P.S. The comments can be longer or they can be shorter, and they can definitely be more profound. TAKE COMMENT LIBERTIES!!)

  2. You broke school policy and sent sent out everybody's email address from a google account. And you could simply have blind carbon copied everybody's email address. You did something stupid trying to be nice. I like that about you.

  3. OOPS!!!

    Its actually less stupid than you think.
    The only people who got the email were the students on the General Email List, which means they all have access to all those email addresses anyways via the student portal.


    But in the future I won't do that. Thanks for pointing that out. :)
