Refining the Circle-ocracy

I thought our class on Monday went unusually well, due in large part I am sure to my own comparative silence. I don’t expect I will be able to restrain myself so readily when it doesn’t actually hurt to speak, but perhaps we can continue with some of the same procedures, such as each speaker calling on the next. Also, I would like to suggest that we refrain from raising our hands until after each speaker has finished, so we are more inclined to say something thoughtful in direct response to that person’s comment.
