Behind the syllabus: Linda Hobgood, Speech Center director

What do you do during the weekends?

During the academic year, I spend the weekends grading papers, catching up with family, running with our dog, Henry, and reading en route to a football or basketball game (so long as my husband is driving).

What's the craziest thing you did when you were in college?

Either trying to attend classes the same day my wisdom teeth were extracted or contracting poison ivy the week of final exams sophomore year.

What's one thing your students would never guess about you?

I was the UVA intramural free-throw champion my junior year.
