ABSTRACT
In the spring semester of 2016, I was teaching a new elective course for CLER called Environmental Issues in English (CLEREnv), which was not going particularly well. There were only six students, and the course was a bit of a non-starter. Then, in the autumn semester (October 2016), I printed my register for the class and instantly recognised Mr Swamp’s name from CLERAC. He had optionally signed up to take one of my lessons! Although Mr Swamp was not a particularly outstanding student, his name on my register made me very happy.
