...Concentrators cite this flexibility as a great strength, but be careful what you wish for–some students find themselves paralyzed by a lack of departmental structure. Seemingly half the course catalog is up for grabs. Advisors are a little too eager to make you choose your own path, so you may be tempted to just throw darts at the Courses of Instruction rather than narrow it down yourself. Instead, listen to Confi and start with Ryan’s cross-listed class, Comparative Literature 161, “Modernist Movements.” In typical Lit fashion...

...courage and valor of the thousands of emergency responders, for example - not just from New York and New Jersey, but across our entire nation - set a new standard for heroism the world over. Those heroes - men and women who willingly thrust themselves into danger?s path on the chance they could save a single life - shall forever be worthy of America?s deepest respect, admiration and gratitude.
