“You can see the surface of the Moon
we just went sci-fi.” On flight day seven, images from our @NASAArtemis II crew amazed, turning science fiction to reality. From the lunar far side to a solar eclipse from the Moon, the views are EVERYTHING. No pressure to pick a favorite.

OTD: #StarTrek Generations premiered, bringing two of Trek's most celebrated captains together as Picard and Kirk teamed up to stop Dr. Soran from destroying an entire star system. Siskel gave it a thumbs up, Ebert gave it thumbs down; what did you think?

Great advice for my #UMC265 and #UMMC333 students!
REMINDER -- Teases are NOT just something you say. They're supposed to give the viewer a reason to keep watching. When you write them, ask yourself: Would this make me want to watch? If the answer is no, you're just talking. #WriteLikeYouTalk

I’m honored to be this year’s “Mentorship Maestro” winner in the Brickies, @montevallo’s version of the Oscars. đŸ’œđŸ§±đŸ’› Mentoring students is one of my favorite parts of my job, and I love being able to help them navigate this season of their lives.
