An old student

I ran into one of my old students today. She told me, somewhat apologetically, that she hadn't majored in anything 'remotely scienc-ey'. But she has found a job (quite a feat at this moment, I am given to understand) and will graduate and move out shortly. Is this how teachers feel when they see their students spread their wings and move out, full of enthusiasm and vigour, ready to conquer the world? Perhaps. I am not sure. But I think I will have many more opportunities to find out.
