Good Discussion

I thought friday went very well.  Thank you for all who participated.

A new frontier...

...the Op-Ed essay. I went from not knowing what the heck it was, to writing a rough draft in the matter of a week or so. I'm kinda glad I'm a fast learner. :] It was interesting to see the connections between the different works that we had to include. The amount of similarities in the themes was really astounding when you really thought about them. This made incorporating them into my essay a ton easier too! However, reading actual op-ed's in newspapers didn't really help me all that much. It might have been due to the fact they were mostly very informal and from community members, not pros. I have survived it non the less! (I hope ;])
*plus, good job on your presentation, Jake, Luke and Tyler!*
