On Thursday, March 29, 2012, we delve into the concept of 'chi'—its essence, reality, and contemporary interpretations. The session includes an SAT vocabulary focus on the term 'genteel,' which refers to being well-bred, refined, and elegant. Participants will also engage in a CRES test analyzing thematic elements, particularly exploring Okonkwo's experience with exile in "Things Fall Apart." Additionally, we will examine William Shakespeare’s influence through a film viewing and subsequent discussion, with a review of Chapters 14-17 and their key questions.
