I had a dream that the spiral staircase in the BBB was in the middle of that giant open space instead of the corner and that the University of Michigan would hire well known actors to stand at the bottom of various staircases in the building and make fun of students that walk by. |

Once I tried to make a standardization of staircases. Probably that is one of the oldest of the standardizations. Of course, we design new staircase steps every day in connection with all our houses, but a standardized step depends on the height of the buildings and on all kinds of things. |

I think Michigan keeps you sane and on an even keel through the ups and downs. In Michigan, I do fireworks, shovel snow and live life. |

I've never looked at a suburban building as being a minor building and an urban building as being a major building. |

I have plenty of dream roles because there is so much I want to do, but my dream year would be to be in a single-camera comedy and then, on my hiatus, film a little low-budget indie drama. That would be a dream 12-month period. A dream role depends on having good material and working with people that I can learn from. |

A large number of students around the world don't really have access to high quality education. So, launching EdX allows students all over the world to have much better access to a high quality education from a university such as Harvard, MIT, Berkeley and others as we add more universities. |

For better or worse, zoos are how most people come to know big or exotic animals. Few will ever see wild penguins sledding downhill to sea on their bellies, giant pandas holding bamboo lollipops in China or tree porcupines in the Canadian Rockies, balled up like giant pine cones. |

I had a dream that Charlsey and I were on the moon and we were packing the space ship so we could go home and the moon looked just like Ben's house and there was plenty of oxygen. We were carrying very large equipment because of the low gravity and our space ship looked like a giant sphere with wrapping staircases around it. We were getting inside and I began to worry about reentering the Earth's orbit.

I had some dream that a guy was standing in the corner of my bedroom with a big knife. I think he was a thief and he was waiting for me to stand up to attack me and kill me. I had another dream where someone was trying to kill me but I can't remember what happened.

I had a dream that I showed up to work at Google, but I was a week early and totally unprepared. I was living in an apartment building that also had a bunch of businesses in it, and you would walk down the hall past doors open to people's rooms (it was more like a dorm in that sense) and then past a UPS place. It was very strange, and had a reputation for not being very safe.

Today, I walked all around the University of Michigan in a Michigan State sweatshirt :)

I had a dream that I lived in this strange house that could magically move and then the door would open up to a different building in a different place and then to the outside world. It was always attached to another building and never on the ground level. I don't know why but I think I was trying to hide from something.

President Schlissel at the University of Michigan refuses tests to people and then when they can get tests has them escorted by cops to quarantine dorms with roaches, no food, no microwaves, no bed sheets, and then when students don't want to get tested at UoM or tell UoM they tested positive he says:
"A lack of cooperation is a potential violation of our Statement of Student Rights and Responsibilities."
Fuck that guy.

I had a dream that I was in my friends new apartment and it was all dark and dank. We went up a couple floors of stairs and into his apartment and then I kept opening doors and going down dark hallways and the apartment just kept going deeper into the building. Eventually, I ended up underground in some secret tunnels and I saw giant robots and I was sneaking around trying to find a way out. I ended up running into some glass room that was really bright and filled with huge machines. A robot ran in and I think was trying to kill me and I woke up. Then I had another dream that I was in some building that kept changing shapes and ran into some person I used to know.

I had a dream that I was in a tall building that looked like hotel rooms and offices and I was waiting deep in this hotel-room type looking thing (but much bigger) around a bunch of corners for someone to open this door and try to assassinate me. There were a lot of mirrors so even though I was way in the back as far from the door as possible, I could still see the door and I was just waiting for it to open.

I had this dream where I was in a kayak paddling in this winter/arctic place with huge sparkling glaciers but instead of feeling cold it felt like a tropical paradise. There were deer playing in the snow and I was trying to take pictures of a wolf on one of the glaciers but I couldn't get my camera to focus. There was also a giant frozen waterfall. Another waterfall was in my dream where the bottom current was moving up the glacier instead of down, so I went up the waterfall and then there was this ice/water slide that went down the backside of the glacier and the water was warm.

I don't disagree with that, and we did make an effort to be prompt in responding to questions on Piazza. The attitude was more the problem. It certainly wasn't everyone, but a small fraction of rude/entitled students in a 200+ person class is enough to be felt. They seemed to forget that we're also students and have other responsibilities as well.
