He's an icon, he's a legend, and he IS the moment. A very fun class with a lot of insight into the construction and history of crosswords. I learned a lot about crosswords and eventually made my own 15x15 crossword, which was published in the Cavalier Daily!

I was supposed to go to a date function and instead my friend and I stayed home and watched a crossword documentary. I also think I cried at the end of the documentary. Anyway, pretty cool class. have to reach 200 words somehow.

So fun!! Really helped get insights into the economic and historical lens of crosswords, and I think this class did a good job of being really accessible for all. Definitely the class that I looked forward to the most every week (even though I didn't really attend half of them).
