The grades are in.

It’s funny. Even when you achieve, it is not enough. I am currently arguing with a prof over an A-! Here is the tale of the tape:

AML 3031 Am Lit From Begin to 1860 A-
CRW 3112 Fiction I A-
CRW 3311 Form/Technique of Poetry A
LIT 3374 The Bible As Literature A

For a semester GPA of 3.835 and an overall USF GPA of 3.471. The only problem spot is my transfer GPA, but with USF grades this high…I am not too concerned.

Summer term begins on Monday. I have to take all my classes outside of the English Department this summer. I had to take exit requirements and classes at a 3000 level. Fortunately, I could fill this requirement by taking web courses. These are the same amount of work, but they are self study and condensed into summer. Exams are taken online with strict time limits. Here is the schedule.

Intro to Criminolgy
Issues in Sports
Teaching Literature in Early Education
IT Ethics

12 credits. A fulltime load.

Writing:

I am using editred.com to workshop my writing during the summer. You may look in and see what I am writing by going to www.editred.com/stackman . Everything here is in draft status, so you get a good idea as to what I am writing. However, you don’t get to see the final product until it’s published. Speaking of publishing; yes the rumors are true that my work has been submitted to The New Yorker. More to come on that….
