So we beat on . . .

Well.  Looks like we've made it to the end of our Gatsby gig.  This week we'll finish our symposia (including, in most classes, a discussion on Waiting for the Barbarians), write a final analysis, and move on.  Your Someplace essays are eligible for rewrites now.  Please follow submission instructions given in the previous post.  And we'll look at the results of our first AP Prompt.  It's Weird Wednesday Week here at Summit, so dress accordingly.
