This is our shared course dictionary, and it’s just a starter list. Most of you are learning at least one new vocabulary this semester. Some of you are learning two. Our goal here is to define our common course vocabulary for both rhetoric and wrestling. Each of you will be assigned at least one term, but will also be responsible for contributing at least one more term to our common lexicon, and providing a definition that includes clear, illustrative examples.
