50 Years Ago Today.

I've lived my whole academic life in the shadow of the 1966 shootings at the University of Texas. For me, the story seems a tipping point between one kind of world and the one we live in now. Every time a new school shooting occurs I worry how numb we have become.

When I took this job many years ago, the specter of the clock tower often crept into my dreams. It scared me. It was ever present and sad. Of course those victims are long forgotten to most, the whole story nearly unknown to my students. But I say Godspeed today to their souls; I hope they found peace in another world.
