A fine head of hair, indeed! Something many of us regard as a mere memory.
Were I trying to motivate students, I think the dinner would be easier on my
ego -- I'm already suffering from follicle deficiency.
One has to admire a teacher willing to part with his dignity in order to
motivate his students. And then to put it on the net, well that is humility
beyond the call of duty.
