Provost Kathy Krendl's May 9 Dialogue on the Future with Ohio University graduate students was an exercise in futility. Though dialogue implies a sharing of ideas, Provost Krendl was seemingly none too interested in actually hearing from graduate students. Instead of asking for our input, graduate students were treated to an hour-long PowerPoint presentation replete with vague generalities that had nothing to do with the reality of graduate student life. For instance, Krendl regaled us with information concerning the University's strategic plan. Though OU's mission statement sounds mighty impressive, I can go to the Web site and read it for myself. Instead I wanted to know how Krendl can claim the university values graduate student education when graduate classes and stipends are being cut. While there was a question and answer period, Krendl avoided the meaty issues facing graduate student education.

They say there are two kinds of people in this world: pessimists and optimists. Those who think the glass is half empty and those who think it's half full. Those who think George W. Bush is half stupid and those who think he's half smart. As for myself, I have struggled with pessimism for most of my life. Sometimes, I think I'll never overcome it. The appeal of pessimism is that it protects me from failure. If I think I'm going to fail and then I do, I can't be disappointed.
