I did snap this one at the conference.  I like the expression.  He looks like he&#8217;s telling someone to just buck up and soldier on.  Since he was talking about multimodal literacies with English teachers, there&#8217;s every possibility that&#8217;s exactly what he was saying.  <\/p>\n<p>This is Dickie Selfe of Ohio State University, by the way.  He spoke today at a conference on college writing at The University of Mississippi.   <\/p>\n<p>I was happy to see him there, and I felt like I got a lot out of his sessions.  I&#8217;m a big fan.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m also the person who showed up at the conference without having even looked at the program ahead of time. I didn&#8217;t know who was on the program, and I wasn&#8217;t even sure what the topic was.  I went because I was asked to go.  So this morning when I walked from my hotel to the conference center, I thought, &#8220;Wow, that guy over there looks like Dickie Selfe.&#8221;  Then I kept strolling along until a few minutes later, I thought, &#8220;Man, he <em>really<\/em> looks like Dickie Selfe.&#8221;  It wasn&#8217;t until I sat down behind him and noticed he had the same hair as Dickie Selfe that I thought, &#8220;Wow.  I really came to the right place today.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Great job, Dickie.  Great job, Ole Miss.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>280 of 365.
