August Wilson, 60, one of America’s greatest playwrights, has told the Post-Gazette he is dying of liver cancer.

Sadly, that time slot is spoken for. It seems that there are far too many courses I want to take this semester that overlap. History of Western Art I and your drama course; Shakespeare and Dr. A's film course... Makes me feel constricted to have to choose like I do.
Nonetheless, a great playwright, that August Wilson.
There are still spaces, if you're free MWF at 9!
