"It's really quite something that Dr. Jill Biden taught full time this semester,

15 credits, remotely while making many stops at vaccination centers and other causes dear to her heart. Great mom, grandma, runner, leader. Wishing @FLOTUS

happy big birthday with love and gratitude.".....We are so lucky to have her.

Though as another CC teacher, I have to say 15 credits a semester (which I have to do too) is too much-- far more than full-time, as each "class-present hour" is supported by at least 3 hours of prep, grading, feedback, and so on.

She's just wonderful, and seeing her and Joe biking down the beach warmed my heart-- active, involved, loving, FUN first couple!

After the last first couple-- angry, vengeful, sedentary, disengaged, and unloving-- it's so nice to see real people who love each other and know how to have fun.
