Orange Day

COLLEGE PREP ENGLISH
1. We took the vocabulary test
2. "A Rose for Emily:" We took time in class to read and discuss the story...we went over the "clues" present in the story that make the ending more believable. There was a response assigned that is due Monday, and the expectation is that this is to be done EVEN IF you haven't finished the story-->What happens to people in our society who go against the status quo? Provide your own opinion, backed up by examples.
