ALL SENIORS: Meet in Guidance; this is your one-on-one opportunity with your counselor to go over your SAIR (student academic involvement report) and plan for college. I'll have a sign on the door in case you forget. If we finish early, back to 313 for more revelry and goodness.

Sophys: Tomorrow is Edusoft Benchmark Testing. Please bring a pencil OR a black-ink pen. It's a reading diagnostic, and I'll give you points for taking it. It will probably take all period and prevent us from Author of the Day. My apologies.

Today, though, is Monday!!! Our Author of the Day is Vladimir Nabakov, who I intended to share with you earlier but then Fay got in the way. He is awesome and he was an amateur lepidopterist. Do you know what that means? It's a person who collects butterflies! Afterwards, finish up Tim O'Brien and prepare for our next Unit: Genre Study. Wheeeeee.
