And there was more to it than this. An interest<br \/>\nin words, recollection: a passing moment in college when someone was gushing<br \/>\nnostalgic but insisting that nostalgia was good, good for its embrace of memory.<br \/>\n<i>Nost-<\/i>. To return home. <i>Algos<\/i>. To feel pain or sickness.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The return home can be temporal or spatial, home to moment or home to place.<br \/>\nAnd the nostalgia I&#8217;ve been weighed down by this afternoon is a little bit of<br \/>\nboth&#8211;a chronotopic noodle-bowl, returning me to a time almost exactly nine<br \/>\nyears ago when I was in the first year of my M.A. program. What was<br \/>\ndifferent about my M.A. program&#8211;different from any program I was in before it<br \/>\nor after&#8211;was that I didn&#8217;t belong to a cohort. I entered the program<br \/>\nsingularly, at mid-year, called upon at the last minute when another TA slipped<br \/>\ntheir obligation (an early applicant, I hadn&#8217;t intended to enroll until the<br \/>\nfall; <i>ten days<\/i> later I was teaching and taking courses). A few<br \/>\nyears before as an undergrad, there were others in my class with whom I shared a<br \/>\nmajor. They were my cohort. There were two of them (three of us in<br \/>\nall). In my current grad program, my cohort is also three. But the<br \/>\nM.A. was different. In terms of cohorts, I was odd-out, in-between, an<br \/>\nisolate. And so I folded in with those who came to UMKC later, in the fall<br \/>\nof &#8217;98. <\/p>\n<p>One of them emailed me today to report that another member of the cohort&#8211;the<br \/>\n&#8217;98 M.A. group&#8211;was killed tragically over the weekend, murdered, in fact.<br \/>\nThe local news has carried a few<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.kansascity.com\/115\/story\/321961.html\">small<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.kctv5.com\/news\/14372148\/detail.html\">reports<\/a>. Googling<br \/>\nRick&#8217;s name, I found that the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America<br \/>\nposted a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sfwa.org\/news\/2007\/rurdiales.htm\">note<\/a> about<br \/>\nit, too. He was, as you might expect from the SFFWA reference, a sci-fi creative<br \/>\nwriter. Today I learned that he wrote a short story titled &quot;The Gas Man&quot; that<br \/>\nwas a hit in 1988 (contest-winning, anthologized, etc.). <\/p>\n<p>Anyway, this is all just to say that I&#8217;ve been thinking a lot this afternoon<br \/>\nabout this awful, tragic event and also by some association about UMKC, about<br \/>\nthe second-floor open office we all shared (a large room, 20&#8242; vaulted ceiling,<br \/>\nfull-height windows, six desks, a couple of couches, file cabinets, and<br \/>\nbookcases; also multiple copies of <i>Writing Without Teachers<\/i> on the<br \/>\nshelves). Shared by ten or twelve TAs&#8211;two to a desk. My nostalgia is for<br \/>\nthat space, a space long since re-claimed for other uses, I imagine, and also a<br \/>\ntime when I can remember Rick very much alive and working feverishly on a short<br \/>\nstory (desk closest to the door), conferencing animatedly with a student (his<br \/>\nconferences were some of the best, every exchange worth eaves-dropping), or<br \/>\nkicking back and whiling away an hour talking pedagogy&#8211;those were some of the<br \/>\nbest conversations about teaching. Nostalgia. It was a good time to be at<br \/>\nUMKC, a good time to be an M.A. student in that particular program, good as much<br \/>\nfor those reasons as for being in the company of Rick and others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">\u23f3 Approximate reading time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 2<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">mins<\/span><\/span>Several weeks ago, I was standing around at an outdoor get-together (picnic-like, the scene).
