If you're in BYU Writing 150H sections 122, 126, or 129 you're in the right place.


My name is Dr. SWILUA. (Pronounced "Swill-oo-ah") That's short for "She Who Is Like Unto Aphrodite." It's my official title, thanks.

  2. I love when he says that getting a D or an F doesn't make you any less in God's eyes or the professor's; it just means that you have to work smarter. It also helps to see the professor's point of view on our work.

  4. That was a pretty good article. A lot of wht he said made perfect sense. And what does that mean if I got an email from you today, but not one about reading this article?

  5. I didn't receive the email, so I unchecked the "unlisted" box on my BYU info. Perhaps that will make a difference.

  12. I like the concept of starting at zero and earning points, rather than having full credit and then points being taken away. It's good to point that out.

  16. I didn't recieve the article, so hopefully BYU doesn't have the wrong one. Let me know if you need me to give you my email at all. But I did read the article and I have a habit of blaming others for my own mistakes sometimes and this article helped me to understand professors a little bit better.
