Loquemur

Among the linked titles below you will find a collection of expository essays, creative writing, and poetry covering a wide range of topics. Several pieces from two classes in particular, Honors: Death and Dying, and Honors: History and Literature of the Vietnam War are included. Dr. Carriere and Dr. Grice collaborated their efforts in the latter for the first Honors class taught by a team of professors, the products of which you can see in the last section of the journal.

The literature of Dr. Miller's Death and Dying class was written in response to a thought-provoking photograph of a overturned and abandoned gravestone (pictured with the appropriate poetry and essay). I hope you will enjoy seeing each student's different perspective on these topics, as well as the others, written by individuals in various other Honors classes.
