Students in Creative Writing updated artist Phillip Niemeyer's chart where he symbolically captured American life from 2000-2009. They had a limited amount of time to interpret one year metaphorically by considering different elements of society (fads, fears, It!, etc.). Many groups interpreted 2024. Victoria and Sammi came up with the most metaphors for multiple years, Bear's group reflected on 2020, and Leena, Makenzi, Rachel, and Peyton remembered the killer clowns that scared us all in 2016.
