Holy Lists: When I was working on a paper to present to the Society for the Study of Philosophy in the Martial Arts, at the 2008 APA conference, my Hapkido instructor - also a professor of Asian Philosophy at Cosumnes River College, said to not only be not intimidated at being a high school grad/butcher in front of a bunch of post-grads, but to celebrate "(you're) not encumbered by the curse of pedagogy."

The gift is in learning a skill in order to teach it, not in having a paper that declares you "competent."
