On rare occasion, I visit my alma mater UC Irvine. I did so this Monday afternoon, in part to avoid traffic, but mainly just to walk around the campus to see what's new. I thought it would be a neat idea to get some souvenir for my AP Statistics students. They are truly some of the best students that I've had the pleasure to work with. I picked up a few inexpensive UCI items. Grand prizes were two Anteater notebooks. Top prizes were UCI's popular "Peace, Love, Recycle" folders. Since I cannot have losers in my class, I got everyone else novelty pencils. The pencils included prints of "I ❤ UC Irvine" and a clever "My Lucky Test Pencil". Since we are on the probability unit, the students had a fun and exciting time with the gifts during our random drawing. I did this because it's fun for me. Also, recently I've been inspired by the phrase "relentless generosity".
