"Dr. Colton, you changed my life!"

I thought it was funny that two days after this blog post about student comments, a student came up to me in the parking lot and said, "Dr. Colton, you changed my life!" I accurately guessed that he was one of my 105 students from last semester, and asked him what he meant. Turns out that he liked the class well enough that he decided to switch majors. Not to physics, but at least to engineering. ;-) He said he had considered himself to be weak at math, but my class had turned him around.

Anyway, nice of him to stop me!

Comments:
one of those dividends you get from teaching. It is those moments teachers live for. I just had the teacher from one of my math tutorees say that I am doing wonders with her...something money can't buy.
