Week of 11/11

I don't know how you felt, other than the ones of you I have asked, but I thoroughly enjoyed the full seminar we had on Friday! I think it just peps things up a little more and provides more energy when we are all together as a full class. :)

This week we are going to finish Frankenstein and move on into satire for Unit 2. I LOVED the discussion today, by the way.
