ModPo update for Monday of week 10 (including info about “final words”)

by Al Filreis · November 12, 2018

This week our live webcast will begin at 8 PM Philadelphia time on Wednesday, November 14. Please plan to join us!

As you know—our last live webcast of the season will happen next Monday, starting at 10:30 AM Philly time. This is our annual “final words” webcast and we encourage you to send in your final thoughts, your farewells-for-now, your summary ideas about the course, perhaps an overview of what you’ve learned, etc. You’ll be able to post these to a special thread in the ModPo forum. You’ll also be able to phone us and offer your final words “on the air,” by dialing 610-616-3208. You’ll also be able to leave a voicemail at (512) 956-6376. And of course we encourage you to make plans to come to Philly, to 3805 Locust Walk [directions HERE] and join us in person. (We will host yummy lunch after the webcast!)

Here are links to recordings of recent “final words” webcasts:

final words, 2012 (our very first season)

Our office hours for today, Tuesday and Wednesday are listed and linked below. Stop by any or all of these hours—if only to say hello to the marvelous ModPo TAs.

Highlight from week 10 for today: Jennifer Scappettone “writes though” H.D.’s poem “Sea Poppies” HERE. You will recall “Sea Poppies” from week 3! I encourage you to do the comparison.

Your “grated sage,”
