• In my Deep Listening class at RPI, I always do an hour of energy exercises to start with. Then we do a listening meditation after that, after the body has been loosened up and warmed up and is ready. We do the listening. After that, there's the journaling of the experience, which they do each time throughout the semester to the point that I have them write a final paper on what they've experienced.

• Cuando llegué a la universidad, planeaba estudiar matemáticas y, además de apuntarme a algunos cursos de matemáticas, decidí estudiar filosofía. Por casualidad, me apunté a un curso de filosofía de la ciencia en el que todo el semestre estaba dedicado a leer el Ensayo de Locke. Me enganché. Durante los semestres siguientes no hice más que cursos de filosofía y matemáticas, y no tardé en darme cuenta de que era la filosofía lo que realmente me conmovía.

• I had interest in acting. I started as a drama major in college. I got to school and said, "What am I going to do with this?" But I didn't know anybody in the business, and it seemed like - I don't know. I had a teacher who said "Less than 1 percent of you will ever make a living being an actor." That was how we opened the semester.

So Oberlin doesn't have a film major; they do have a film minor...

I started locking my door at 9:15 second semester.
