End of the Semester Expectations

We will meet at my house for our final exam session at 1:30 on May 2nd, a Thursday. 

9800 Seymour Street
Houghton

Directions:
On foot, cross the little bridge behind Lambein.
When you reach Luckey Road at the top of the incline, turn right.
The second house on the right, the red house, is mine.

We will be interacting with and listening to two "local" poets, Jack Leax and Linda Mills-Woolsey. Please be familiar with their work in terms of the handout I will give in class.  Be ready to engage them in discussion.

Professor Emeritus Jack Leax has written many books in many forms.  He taught at Houghton College for 40 years before his retirement. He continues to practice his craft.  Dr. Linda Mills-Woolsey is Dean of our institution.  She is both a 19th Century scholar and a practicing poet.

As to the poems required for our course:

Please work up until the day of our final exam period. Post all the poems/revisions you would like to have considered for the poetry part of your grade. Your last post should begin with the titles of the ten poems that you have chosen to represent your best work.
