Finally got my English grade - an A-. I'm thrilled, especially given the frantic last-minute paper-writing frenzy that occurred when my first thesis for my final paper fell apart.

Something I learned yesterday, while I was in the Treasure Room at McCabe (otherwise known as the Special Collections room) - W.H. Auden taught at Swarthmore. He was apparently here for 3 years in the mid-40's. There was a note from him, dated 1966, on the desk in the Treasure Room that apparently accompanied some manuscripts he sent to the college. So cool.
