The Primary Reason Why I Gave Up Assigning Essays

I would not be surprised to learn that Bar Jester Jason Peters is reverse-engineering an actual essay from his freshmen composition class. His note to the female students of his college is well-taken -- this isn't worth suicide for them -- but I can find no similar consolation for the professors and TA's who are forced to read this stuff in exchange for starvation wages.
