Welcome

This blog was created to allow students of American Literature at Aquin Catholic High School in Freeport, Illinois, to write about American Culture as they see fit - whether that discussion is about books, games, movies, radio, websites, periodicals, or television shows.

THE RULES

1. Each student must post at least once every quarter.
2. Each student must comment on every mandatory post.
3. When posting or commenting, remember to be civil, smart, and syntactically correct.
4. Mr. Wykes is the sole arbiter of semantic interpretation with regards to rule 3.
5. Posts or comments which are in flagrant violation of rule 3 will result in their author losing blog privileges and/or class points.
