Adventures in grading...

In response to Charlotte Perkins Gilman's "The Yellow Wallpaper," my student writes: "John is so caught up in work and his own life that in the end when Jane goose saccadic he faints because he is in such shock since he never seen it coming."

My best guess? "Goose saccadic" should read "goes psychotic." I have no comment on how John "never seen it coming."
