A - always, B - be, C - closing... always be closing!

Preach on, brother...
Get that money!
So, did you enjoy getting out there today and selling your wares? Some of you really have the gift of sales. We were impressed; there are definitely some solid used car salespeople out there in Humanities-land. Some of you... not so much. Well, that's okay. You can work in the Human Resources department.
In addition to honing your business skills, we hope you got a chance to explore more deeply a specific moment in history. Getting a chance to go in depth with a particular topic always gives one a clearer understanding of what really drives history.
On a side note, after hearing several of you perform jingles for us today, we just have to say that you are seriously lacking in the rapping department. We're just sayin'...
I think giftedness and rapping skills don't co-exist naturally. 

It's about that time.
So, we're finally winding down the semester. Relaxing isn't it? 

Here's how it's gonna go:
TUES - CE, wrap up a few things, talk about your exam essay and about Wednesday's quiz
WED -  Unit Quiz 5.1 & 5.2
THURS -  Semester Exam Essay - fun with hand cramps!
FRI -  review for your exam; this will be a more structured review day
MON -  review for your exam

We'll talk preparedness and appropriate stress levels later this week. But, it is definitely time to start getting a little jittery!

I think I'll wrap up our musical semester by sharing some of my favorite songs or albums from this past year. In case you weren't paying attention, 2015 was an exceptional year for music. There was just so much fantastic music out there this year. I hope you took advantage of the bounty. If you have any thoughts on some of your favorites from this past year, please be sure to share with us in the comments section, or let us know in class. 
I think I'll begin with one of my favorite songs of the year that happens to come from an all around amazing album. The album is Fading Frontier from Deerhunter. Here is "Snakeskin".
