I'm a fourth year at the University of Chicago. Taught this class three years ago when I had recently moved to Chicago from Phoenix, Az. I like long walks on the beach, moonlit lights, and Pina Coladas when I get caught in the rain.

L1174: Seussian Parables: The Stories of Dr. Seuss in Splash! Fall 2013 (Oct. 05, 2013)

Do you like Dr. Seuss but not Nathaniel Hawthorne or any of those other dry authors? Me too! In this short course we will read one of Dr. Seuss's parables (Yertle the Turtle or The Butter Battle Book or something completely different? Who knows? It'll be a surprise) and analyze it afterwards. I hope that after this class you'll have learned some awesome tools for reading and analyzing anything else. Even if anything else means The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne, ugh.
