World Literature Extra Credit Option

Hi - Some of you have asked about possible extra credit options. Here is what you can do. Go to www.speakingoffaith.org and listen to The Body's Grace, about a man named Matthew Sanford who, at age 13, was involved in an accident that left him without the use of his legs. He explores the mind-body connection, which is especially important to think about at this point in the semester since we are reading The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. It is about a 55 minute radio program - listen to it, and then write a one page, typed reaction to the interview where you focus on things Sanford and Tippet say and relate it to what you are reading in The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. This is due January 4, and is worth up to 50 points extra credit for this quarter.
