Salutojn,
I've had a hell of a time trying to figure out where to possibly
have future classes. I think i may have found a solution in the Old
Union Building. It is a straight path from the parking lot of the
International Center, passing Tressider Union on your right. Cross the
street, and again on the right, there's a side door to the Old Union
Building. I will, hopefully, be just inside of that door in one of the
glass-walled meeting rooms. Unless someone kicks me out for not having
a reservation!
So, what if i'm not there? Good question! Please go to
https://pad.riseup.net/p/esperantostanford - whew, that's a long address
There, i hope to keep an updated message of where i physically am.
This link is pointed to from the http://esperanto.org/stanford , so
hopefully new people can find us.
This is an experiment to see if it will function to keep us together.
Hope to see, at least a few of you, later.
Fartu bone!

That is great news, Trio.
Are we lectures start again this evening after the break ? Because today I will not be able to attend the lecture.
Regards
Ognian

Dankon pro via averto. Tamen, mi venas por provi ĉu mia ideo
funkcias. Mi nun estas en ĉambro ĉe Stanford, Old Union. Neniu alia
alvenis. Tamen, mi restos. Eble iu preterpasanto demandos pri la
lingvo. :)
Mi faros la saman dum la sekvantaj semajnoj. Probable vi estos la
sola studanto. Nii povos praktiki por via ekzameno por B1. Mi esperas
revidi vin.
Ĉion bonan.

Hi Trio
From afar, I forwarded your email about Eo classes at SU concluding due to classroom access after 4:30pm to Chuck Mays at Esperantic Studies Fdn and to Humphrey Tonkin. Both were sad to hear the news but so impressed by your extraordinary tenure. I hope that I was correct when I added that students could receive academic credit if they were willing to register and pay tuition. That's what I remember . . .
Chuck reached out to Eo-USA to see if they would cover the classroom cost. Inter ni, I remember that a while ago you were trying to retire from teaching. Somehow, you were persuaded to continue. At any rate, your students are most fortunate to have you. I have slipped back into krokodilujo, although Chuck persuaded me to join the ESF advisory board. In my self-defense, I am writing a dissertation at Trinity College Dublin and have ZERO time . . . Trio, if anyone suggests that you undertake an m.phil. degree, full-time, at a highly-rated European university, aged 72 years, SAY NO. Register for the life-long-learning program for senior citizens>attend classes and enjoy the lectures & discussions>read the materials>DO NOT AGREE TO WRITE 5000-word academic papers, including footnotes and bibliographic references per OUP Style Manual, or 20,000-word dissertations. My best friend in Ireland has told me that if I am admitted to any more graduate programs, he will take me to the psychiatric clinic at St John of God's Hospital for a dementia evaluation. Once done with my BIG PAPER, I shall return to edukado.net and reclaim la verdan stelon.
MEANWHILE, Eo-USA might be in touch to offer 1) financial support for unlocking the room, and 2) acknowledgment for your 34 years of outstanding teaching.
Amike, elkore to you and Sandi,
Pat

Yes. I have given out credits, but nobody has asked about that in a
long time. I get (hmmm... used to get) many people showing up to the
first class, and maybe the second. Then, suddenly they realize they're
at Stanford and there's a ton of work expected from them. That and the
fact that i was limited to giving 2 credits per Quarter, limited the
interest of most everybody. - I did have one guy show up one Spring
Quarter, who said "I came 4 years ago, didn't have time, i'm
graduating in weeks. Please help me to get started and i'll continue
on my own." Okazis. :)

I believe i had been doing it for about 20 years when i decided
that i'd "retire" after 25. By the time i got around to calculating,
it had been 28 years! :) Basically, i finally felt that i had "gotten
the hang of it". I love watching the knowledge bits "click" in the
beginners... and my more advanced students have been some of the best
people i've ever known.

:) Bona amiko! You've always been very impressive in your work,
especially for community.
That would be good fortune for edukado.net .

It was an institutional decision to not keep the building open in
the evenings. I don't know what they do there now, but that place used
to be hot... a lot of activity, late into the evening. I was the only
one left after Covid. I'm still looking for alternatives.
> Amike, elkore to you and Sandi,
Thank you. I hope you are getting well-deserved gratitude. You're
so smart and big-hearted... sounds like a condition to be looked at.
This would be better said in esperanto. :)
