Live and Let Live

Hey, happy Tolerance Week!  It's about time; I couldn't have tolerated much more intolerance.  Anywho, as planned, this will be a wacky week of weirdness.  On Monday and Tuesday we'll have some in-class readings, writings, and discussion.  Wednesday through Friday, you will be completing the field testing of the CIM writing prompts.  Remember, this essay will count on your grade now, and, to give you a bit of incentive to DO YOUR BEST, I will give 10 points extra credit--in the essay category!--for essays returned with scores of 5 or 6.  What a deal, eh?
