Bruce’s convocation address at my school Saturday conveyed great advice. His book “Life is in the Transitions” borrows its title from William James (who probably borrowed the thought from Emerson, “shooting a gulf, darting to an aim” etc.)… I’ll reinforce his message with my MTSU Philosophy students today: talk to people who you don’t agree with, try to actually hear what they say before responding. Also: go to the ballet (assuming you’re not into it… if you are, go to the ballgame). And I may regret it, but I’ll also ask the 1st year students how many actually read the book. Thanks for coming to Murfreesboro, Bruce.
