 * Honors American Literature**

Wiki. Said three times quickly and at a high pitch, //Wiki Wiki Wiki//, the sound of late '80's DJ scratching is evoked in the reader's mind. However, this page is where we shall drop literary knowledge bombs like it's our job, not where we will learn how to scratch records like Public Enemy's Terminator X. This page will be an e-space for classroom handouts, assignments, online discussions, posting questions for me or your classmates, or for whatever else we discover this here Wiki is capable of. At this time, I envision this being a place where we will continually be engaging with one another on an intellectual level concerning American Literature, class vocabulary, grammar, and the big thing we call The American Experience. Where we will ultimately go is yet to be determined.

 Get your Wiki on by personalizing your profile once you've joined the Wiki. When you are a member, keep in mind that you'll be an e-citizen in our e-community. Let's all be good e-citizens. You will be able to make edits to the page; meaning, you will have almost as much power over this page as I do. Please Wiki with care.
