Donne, etc.

Update: We've actually already read the poems I wanted to assign on this day. Nothing to see here... move along.

As I mentioned in class in late March, I'm not actually requiring a revision of your professional portfolio. If you would like to meet with me to discuss further changes you can make, please feel free to do so.

I'm leaving this part of the exercise on the syllabus just as a reminder that your professional documents will always be developing, and that every day is a chance for you to make a change ("Start today!") that can affect your future career.

There's nothing to download.

Write a parody of an existing sonnet.

Include the "real" sonnet and your parody on a single piece of paper, with a brief explanation of your accomplishment.

Bring a printout to class.
