Dungeons and dragons

a lesson in etiquette from professor Agassi

On the map it's marked: "Here Be Dragons", aka The Academy and more particularly, Graduate School. To my knowledge, even today, there exists no handbook nor traveler's guide for the unwary but eager who enters this region. If one is very lucky, or perhaps miraculously blessed, one may be accompanied by a guide, a pioneer or griot whose experience, wisdom and sagacious understanding, born of successful survival, appears to generously share and educate the novice in how to survive. It might even be hoped that in this education the novice will learn how not only to survive himself but will educate others and in the process one day to transform the region to a more open place. But dragons, I fear, are only too human, and intelligence, justice and wisdom will continue to be necessary gifts for the survivors.
