A colleague and I are working on a presentation for an educational conference on setting up field trip classes. One of our slides about "the challenges of..." involves what I refer to as "People Wrangling" and includes issues like personality conflicts, people with physical challenges....and dealing with "controlled substances."

My colleague suggested we have a picture on the slide to lighten things up, and facetiously suggested John Belushi in "Animal House" as a possibility.

I found this photo and popped it onto the slide, next to our comments:



I swan, I laughed for FIVE WHOLE MINUTES over that slide. (it still makes me giggle). I emailed my colleague a copy of the slide. He may not be as amused and might want to take it out but I hope not.

(Edited: to put slide in rather than just picture. The slide is a lot funnier to me than the picture was just by itself.)

(FWIW, it's a conference of all "adults" who are mostly college profs.)

And to think I turned down an opportunity to herd cats.

I would totally use it. It is just the type of slide that would be welcome in an academic meeting. Hope your colleague does not nix it.
