In this class, you will be challenged to think critically and creatively as we encounter important issues that are relevant to our lives. Also, we will study significant literary works in order to develop ethical, aesthetic, and cultural awareness. As my student, I will do all I can to help you learn and develop as individuals; however, this can only be achieved if you take a proactive role in your education. The standards are high, but you can reach them through dedication, a positive attitude, and practice.

"To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you like everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting."
