Hey All,

After spending 2 hours combing through missing assignments and late work, I came to the realization that a refresher course on essay writing strategies may be useful. This inspiration came from your peers that engaged in the alternative assignment to our A-Bomb debate.

Many of the essays did not start well (or end well for that matter), so I figured we would look into how to write a good introduction paragraph. If you would like extra credit on our Intro Writing Workshop just write "Live Long and Prosper" on the top of the first page in bold. Also please remind me about this agreement by referencing that you read this blog post. Thanks for the two of you that see this ; ).

See you soon,
