I read Brian's Blog post and it reminded me of how amazing this semester really has been. I feel like a character, Ender, out of a novel called Ender's Game because I've learned so much through this class. Ender is a genius kid who gets enrolled in a school for smart kids who train to defeat the enemy. Ender is placed in lots of different scenarios and is a winner in almost all. At the end, (spoiler) it turns out he was actually orchestrating the allies and defeated the army in real life.
I feel like I've learned a lot in this class too just like Ender did at his school. From editing sentences to reorganizing papers altogether to blogging to working in a group has all been a great experience for me and my growth as a student. I don't think there is a trick ending to my semester performance like there was in Ender's Game but I hope there is a happy one.
I didn't know there was a connection between mathematics and literature but one that pops up in my head now is the question what will you do with a math degree or a literature degree or both? It's a difficult question to answer common to both fields...In my case I am just a math major and plan on going to graduate school for higher education after I work for a few years.

I agree. I've also learned a ton. It has been a pleasure interacting with all. It has made my pursuit of knowledge much easier.
I'm glad that I've been able to interact with nearly everybody in the classroom. It's made this course very enjoyable.
I agree with everyone, which is usually a pretty hard thing to do! Also, I am not that into Sci-Fi, but I LOVE the Ender's game series.
It was fun! I learned a lot as well. It was nice to meet everyone and I hope you all have a great summer!
