Yes. Yes. Yes. Thank you, Katherine, for this essay. During my tenure in public university, as was also true in Christian settings, I cannot count the number of Providential opportunities that were granted to care for students. The affective nature of our craft is often lost in a cognitive, behavioral academic world. Our outcomes should always link thinking-being-doing.

Thanks for your comment, Mark. I've been struck by how much of an impression it makes on students when they feel I care about them and how it affects their engagement in learning.
