Somebody's Always Listening

I'm lucky enough to have a nice office in the Rasmussen Center, Grand View's newest building (opened in fall 2008).  But the location of my office is, well, interesting.  I'm not in one of the faculty bays, no, that would be too easy.  I'm actually at the end of the second floor surrounded by classrooms and the north stairway.  So my office entrance doesn't lead into a lobby, like most offices...it leads into the hallway.  I have students passing my door on an hourly basis and I've become immune to the chatter, but an interesting conversation will undoubtedly peak my interest.  You see, most students don't realize that I'm sitting in my office, so they aren't cautious of what comes out of their mouths.  I have heard stories and language that would make Bob Knight turn as red as his sweater.  So remember, whether you're in the Rasmussen Center on Grand View's campus or any place else for that matter, you never know who's listening to your conversation.
