I begin my next block of classes today, and among them is a science class. I was twitchy and stressed out last night as I reviewed the course syllabus. Science is my poorest subject, easily. I voiced my concerns aloud and Nick replied, "What grade do you have to get to get reimbursement?" I replied that I needed a "C" or better. "Aim for a C." And with that, he turned back to the television.
