Where's Beowulf when we need him?

It's draggin' time! Students are draggin' backpacks stuffed with capstone research and cold pills, and faculty members are draggin' stacks of student papers, advising folders, and travel grant proposals. Today I dragged home papers to grade that turn out to be better than expected, which is a tremendous relief after the previous batch. Electronic submission may make student papers weightless, but they're still fully capable of weighing me down until my nose scrapes against the sidewalk.

What we need is some serious draggin'-slaying, but where's that pesky sword? Must be buried under the leaning tower of advising folders.
