I passed my German reading proficiency exam! Last semester I thought I was very close to passing yet didn't pass. This semester I thought there was no way I answered enough questions correctly to pass but did! Maybe it was because I used an orange-ink pen....

OMG I just realized something. Yesterday at this symposium, I kept seeing this woman who looked familiar, but I couldn't place her. Now I am almost positive she was the woman who proctored my German proficiency exam last week!

"Literary" texts no more?:
Academic purists will be horrified. Hamlet's famous query, "To be or not to be, that is the question," becomes "2b? Nt2b? ???"
 
John Milton's epic poem "Paradise Lost" begins "devl kikd outa hevn coz jelus of jesus&strts war." ("The devil is kicked out of heaven because he is jealous of Jesus and starts a war.")
Really now. Why would anyone bother?
