Wednesday was a busy day at the Cam Prep! Students spent the morning listening to members of the faculty present their research - I spoke on Lewis Carroll's authorial persona, while other members of my panel discussed Islam and Shakespeare. During the afternoon we broke up into Major class groups and competed against one another in a light-hearted field day! Students played soccer, field hockey, rounders, frisbee, and even competed in an obstacle course! Below are Kathleen's haikus on both the morning and afternoon activities. Full disclosure: Kathleen is a member of our Minor course, and roundly defeated the Major creative writers in a game of hockey!
Lessons Learned from the Symposium
An average Briton
Is on camera three hundred
Moments in one day.
Field day
The freezing water,
Shot from the water guns, helped
Shield us from the heat.
Emmy, also a member of our Minor course, came up with the following:
Lessons Learned from the Symposium
People almost dead,
I wonder, should I save them?
Medical science.
Field Day
Our teacher once said,
Win the battle not the war,
So we didn't win.
