Meet Guillermo Morales-Jodra, one of the newest additions to our Spanish department. This fresh-off-the-plane-from-Spain graduate student teaches mostly upper-level Spanish courses, so only the more advanced Spanish students will meet him (lo siento principiantes).
Apparently, this photo to the right is the only one of him in existence because as he says, he simply doesn’t “appear” in photos. Is he a vampire? I don’t know for sure but if you take one of his classes, which I highly encourage, you may want to bring a string of garlic – and a camera.
