So this summer GRCC offered to let Gaetan teach a section of Calc 3... even though he doesn't have a degree in math! That is SO awesome. I'm really excited that he gets this responsibility, and I know that he really likes teaching. That also means that he doesn't necessarily have to work as many hours in the lab if he so chooses not too :) More family time. This is pretty rare also because a lot of people who have degrees there don't get to teach the 'fun' classes (as Gaetan puts it). They get stuck with college algebra and things like that... and the way that he got this was by recommendations by other math faculty! So all his wonderful hardwork that he does/did in the lab is being recognized by his peers, which is so good. The only downside is that this class starts on Tuesday... so he has to get his lesson plans, syllabus and poop in a group really in a short amount of time.
Other awesome thing is that they're going to let him teach a physics lab during the second half of the summer. :) And they that might include the actual lecture too... we will see.
