Walk in the Glow of Each Other's Majestic Presence

It's funny the classes that stay with us. For me it was Folk Songs as Social History, taught by Tony Barrand at BU. He was an amazing teacher -- I took all of his classes as electives, which included one on Morris dancing and a class called "Stalking the Wild Mind: The Psychology and Folklore of Extra-Sensory Perception and Psychic Phenomena". But this class taught me a lot about how much we can learn from everything around us, including (maybe especially) music, and that simple things are often worth examining more deeply. I think I worked harder in his classes than any in my major, but I learned more from them.
