In a delightful story from the List Art Center, the students of Modern Fantasy Literature were treated to a full page of narration from British student Connor Schmidt.

“I just love when Connor volunteers in class,” said junior Ella Mendes, pulled into a dreamlike trance by Connor’s words. “It reminds me of when my mom used to play Winnie The Pooh audiobooks for me before bed. I actually fall asleep every single time he talks, which probably isn’t great for my class participation grade, but it’s so worth it. Sometimes I secretly record it, just to have while I fold laundry or nap."

“Connor really helps other students focus, I actually appreciate his presence more than the TAs,” reported Profesor Conroy, who did in fact, listen to lecture captures that included Connor’s voice on the drive home from work. “I’ve bumped his grade up a full letter because of it. This class would fall apart without him.”

At press time, a TAPS concentrator volunteered to read a passage, again.
