In the Times

I hope you caught the story on teaching The Great Gatsby at Boston Latin (well-known urban school). It gives a small window into the teaching of fiction at the high school level, something I think college teachers (especially me) know too little about.

I also liked this story on the semicolon on the NYC subway.

Everything is Gatsby all over the interwebs this week because of that piece. I love it, even though I found the idea of Harvard as a green light, as well as the idea that Gatsby might provide some inspiration for young recent immigrants, disheartening.
