	Discussion of Faulkner and Calvinism: Mary Dell Fletcher
		The lastborn Compson, the very symbol of his family’s doom, is in fact the least cursed in the Calvinistic sense, for he has no sense of impending destruction or future calamity.
		Caroline Compson obviously subscribes to this line of thought: Jason is viewed as her “salvation” from Benjy’s “punishment,” and she states that “there is no halfway ground that a woman is either a lady or not” (65).
		Compson and Quentin, as Warwick Wadlington notes, “tend to experience difference as contradiction, multiplicity as a stalemated war between ‘impure properties.’…A universe of antagonisms is formed, all divided and subdivided, as awareness focuses on each, into further bifurcations of ‘A and not-A’” (362).

	Sometimes It's Tough to Agree [Fool.com: Motley Fool Take] May 12, 2006
		The press release states that Compson has spent three months and a significant amount of time performing due diligence on Agree Realty before making its original offer of $34.50, its second offer of $36, and now its third offer of $38.75 per share.
		The company has, however, rejected Compson's first two offers and told Compson that it believes the offer is "not in the best interest of the shareholders." Given that the current market price of the shares is only $33, it appears the market does not expect a deal to go through any time soon.
		While in the long term a 17% premium may be small potatoes, it appears that Compson is serious about its offer and it doesn't take much time or effort on the part of Agree Realty's board of directors to explain their position.

	EDSITEment Lesson - Printer Friendly
		The third chapter of The Sound and the Fury is told from the perspective of Jason Compson, now the patriarchal head of the family, after his father's death, Quentin's suicide, and Caddy's abandonment of her own daughter (also named Quentin).
		Jason's new familial system is set against the backdrop of rapid and noticeable change throughout the South in the early 20th century: economic transitions (stock market vs. aristocratic wealth via land and slave holdings), technological shifts (fast cars vs. slow horse/buggies), and social changes (new roles for women and African Americans in the South).
		His leadership does not bode well for keeping intact the remaining remnants of the Compson family, ultimately indicating the passing of both the Old South at large and its one-time aristocratic families such as the Compsons.
