The “Ben Lawner Academic Rant”
I don’t have much of a voice right now, thanks to a nasty URI that I am dealing with. So, as I finish up the June (will now be July) episode of Educators’ Edition I thought I would share with you a rant from one of my esteemed colleagues, Dr. Ben Lawner….So, sit back, relax, and listen to this incredibly bright guy go off!
