Fellowship and the Silmarillion would be terrific. The efollet list says Lord of the Rings, but the e-mail from the prof just says Fellowship. ::shrugs::

Your dad has an elvish dictionary? Interesting.

I think i already made that promise, but i (re)affirm it now.

I am already considering dropping the class and just auditing for the discussions about Lewis' theology [that the prof "recommends" that we purchase the Complete Guide "to help us keep track of names and places in the Lord of the Rings mythology" frightens me] but am trying to withhold judgement on my classes until i've actually attended them and obtained full semester syllabi.
