Thanks for listening and offering perspective

Our last class session started with a very painfully disturbing essay from a student.  And I would to take this opportunity for thanking everyone for giving me much welcomed insight on dealing with the essay.  All of the responses were either exactly or close to the ideas I had in regards to grading the paper.  It is not important to revisit the testimony placed in the essay, but it is important to consider all of the ideas given that day.  Thank you very much for your time.  Moreover, the insights prepared myself as well as other students to have some perspective on handling essays from students that may contain intense information.
