Beginning in the fall of 2012 [at the University of North Carolina], the test that all journalism students must pass with a 70 percent or higher before graduation will be composed of two-thirds grammar questions and one-third word usage questions. The word usage section will replace the spelling portion of the test.
Clarity. Advocacy. Simplicity. Creativity. I like making connections. Not to confuse but to understand. From inspiring to amusing to unexpected ... to politically progressive. Between people, places, things. Ideas, beliefs, words. Events, issues, solutions. To explain. To enjoy. To grow. To advise. For fun, call me Garbl. I'm an acronym!
