I may have misused the word "encroaches," but Reading Week is kind of damaging.

As Reading Week encroaches upon me, I know I have write up a schedule so I can maximize the time made available to me. I'll be reading Frank Norris' McTeague, plus some Durkheim and Wordsworth.

Some good news: one of my students, who I was tutoring in preparation for the Language Proficiency Index (or, the LPI) this semester, passed the test recently. Most students have to write the test in order to qualify for upper-level English classes. So, if you're working out of the Engineering or Science Department, you need six English credits, and one can imagine the horrified look in a chemistry student's eyes when faced with Anne of Green Gables.
