I am going to create a new system for uploading essays over the break, so if you have any files that are saved on this server in the briefcase that you need to save, please download them by Friday night.
If you are looking for some notes on Invisible Man, these are your options:
- A complete set, with supplemental readings
- A full set of the notes , without supplemental materials
- A folder with individual files
Rumor has it that returning students are more than welcome to return this Friday for an exciting Strikebo Slambo showdown, during periods 3-5.
Also, look for a discussion group article by midday Monday.
"Our greatest challenge today…is to couple conviction with doubt. By conviction, I mean some pragmatically developed faith, trust, or centeredness; and by doubt I mean openness to the ongoing changeability, mystery, and fallibility of the conviction."
~ Kirk Schneider, 1999, The Paradoxical Self, p. 7
"Good art wounds as well as delights. It must, because our defenses against the truth are wound so tightly around us. But as art chips away at our defenses, it also opens us to healing potentialities that transcend intellectual games and ego-preserving strategies."
~ Rollo May, 1985, My Quest for Beauty, p. 172
"One repays a teacher badly if one always remains nothing but a pupil."
~ Nietzsche, 1892/1966, Thus Spoke Zarathustra (W. Kaufmann, Trans.), p. 78
