NPR commentator Susan Stamberg has written many delightful essays over the years. One of my favorites—which I will paraphrase badly here—concerns the marked seasonal change that fall brings, something especially true for those of us who work at academic institutions. The arrival of autumn signals the start of a new school year that in many ways surpasses New Year’s Day as a time that brings renewal, rejuvenation, and perhaps even a bit of melancholy. For many, fall—not the middle of winter—is the time of year that marks new beginnings.
