Maybe the entire course is based around Grizzard columns.
I once told a professor at the J-School that his class "would be more effective if we read good writing, hell ANY writing, even Lewis Grizzard columns, to get a feel for syntax, and style."
He was pretty happy. I guess I also told him that I was in my 3rd year of college, and would not deign to do any assignment that came from a workbook with perforated for tearing pages.
He later became the Dean. I miss college.
