Poems are almost worse than visual arguments.

AP Comp -- Rhetorical boot camp. 

Arts and Crafts -- I get what we're doing, but what happened to writing?

Bitzer -- Learn about exigence three pages in, skim the next ten pages. Complain that it was too difficult.

Cardona -- Belongs next to Tom Strommen and Ishmam Ahmed in my new religion.

Diction -- One of the few Comp words you can explicitly mention in an essay.

Grammar -- Disregard at will, but NEVER misspell.

Index poem -- This art stuff doesn't make sense.

Logos, Ethos, Pathos -- Learn what they are, but God help you if you ever use their names in a paper.

Orwell -- My grade probably depends on including him in this index.

Post Card Project -- See Arts and Crafts.

Revision Essays -- Write a perfect paper, then try three more times.

Rhetoric -- How you say stuff to make it sound good

Risks -- Take them, just not at 1:30 AM.

Syntax -- See Logos, Ethos, Pathos.

Tone -- Guess mine.

Visual project -- See Arts and Crafts.

Modelling an "index poem" after Cardona's list of links? PRICELESS. I'm leaving this here, because it's quality work, believe it or not.
