I was looking at the website for the Dallas Institute, because I am considering attending their summer program for teachers, when I happened upon a video that I found inspirational and edifying.
This video is a filmed address by Dr. Louise Cowan on the 25th Anniversary of the Dallas Institute of Humanities and Culture. The address is about a half an hour long, so make sure that you give yourself enough time to sit down and listen. If you are a teacher or are thinking about becoming one, then commit yourself to listening to this excellent speech. Dr. Cowan has shares her insights on literature, the role of the teacher as bearer of the Western Heritage, and moreover, Louise practices exactly what she preaches.

Take the class. I think Boomer enjoyed the stuff he did at the Institute and suspect you will too. Besides, you get to hang out with the Cowans and the Arberys.
