...Ellipsis

AP Literature Students Issue the First Schutz Magazine
Mohamed Zahran

Last month, Ms. Jean Melek, the Upper School English teacher, assigned the juniors in her AP Literature class to do a project for their final exam. Those students are Nada Abou-Gad, Arnab Chaudhuri, Cameron Newell, Ingy Fahmy, Tias Paul, and Marina Guirguis. They worked to develop, combine, and distribute a magazine at Schutz American School. This will be the first magazine ever published by Schutz students.

The Board of Trustees approved the AP Literature class’s request to sell the magazine. The magazine will be sold in the week of the finals for about five to ten pounds. The magazine is open for anyone to submit poetry, short stories, journals, photographs and artwork. The students’ first step in accomplishing their goal was to choose a name for their magazine. Ellipsis came to mind. Ellipsis means the omission from a sentence or other construction of one or more words that would complete or clarify the construction. This name symbolizes upcoming opportunities when there is still more to come. It is usually represented by a row of three periods.
