Hi All,

Hi All,

I've posted my updated draft as well.  I've also posted some possibilites for transitions between the  sections.  Please let me know what you think (I'm not sure if they are accurate but thought we should include something).

Pam,

I'm a bit confused about your chart.  You say that the men's numbers stay the same or even increase after two years, but when I read through the numbers, I noticed they all decreased except for one category - anger (which increased by 1 point).  Am I reading this wrong?

See you all tomorrow.

Cheers,

Susan 

Oh, also, as I read through each of the papers and worked on the transitions, I looked for commonalities.  I think we could use culture / society as an overarching theme, since each paper deals with this.

What do you all think? 

Just in case, Math South is located at 710 North College Avenue.  It is on the northeast corner of 7th and College.  It is a gray house with maroonish colored trim.  I'll try to be there by 2:15.
