Hello, Students!

I hope you had a wonderful and relaxing Thanksgiving break! So restful, in fact, that you are anxious to get back to the books! :p

Just a reminder: Please bring your final copies (printed!) to class tomorrow along with your rough drafts (both copies), comparison charts, and outlines.  Also, if you could bring the final copy of the biographical essay that would be great-I would like to keep them in your files until the end of the year.

Looking forward to seeing you both tomorrow!
