So the wiz mixes up social categories and statuses and expectations in
the fifth dimension, and marks it as an OTHER place, where OTHER rules,
which have to be made up, will hold. A place of slippery identities.
I'm beginning to understand the attraction of the fifth dimension.

Is one implication for public schools perhaps that teacher education needs
a wiz? (don't we all).

How transportable IS the wiz? - maybe it's the discourse of/around
the WIZ that should be the object of careful, systematic study?
