New Module Starts Today

Welcome new and returning students! We hope you're set to go with today's start. Remember, if you need assistance with anything, you can ask at the LRC or the front desk in the main office. Remember also: be of use in the world! Here's a poem to remind us:

Lines on a Skull

by Ravi Shankar
(Haiku Erasure of Lord Byron’s "Lines Inscribed Upon a Cup Formed from a Skull")
Start spirit; behold
the skull. A living head loved
earth. My bones resign

the worm, lips to hold
sparkling grape’s slimy circle,
shape of reptile’s food.

Where wit shone of shine,
when our brains are substitute,
like me, with the dead,

life’s little, our heads
sad. Redeemed and wasting clay
this chance. Be of use.
