Power Up

Hmm, well, I guess it is about time for me to post something meaningful here, but with classes and work all week and the Snapper starting up again, life's been busy!

So instead, here are parts of Professor McVay's commentary on her Intro to Lit class (which I am helping out with in sort of a TA capacity).

"So, I'm introducing you to literature. Literature, this is my students; students, this is literature."

"How many of you have had a literature class that just really sucked?"
[some students raise their hands]
"Well, in this class, I am going to take the suck out of literature. There will be no suck in this class!"

"We're not going to be delving deep into the deep hidden meanings of the text until we find some small gem so then we can, you know, power up and move to the next level..."
