Party-Goers Should Start Doing Their Homework

Congratulations on the Special Entertaining Issue (Nov. 9). I’d like to suggest that the SATs drop the math portion of the test and replace it with Martin Booe’s article “The Role of the Guest.” It should be required reading for all aspiring adults.

Thanks for alerting my fellow Angelenos to the true meaning of RSVP. It always seems as if people think it’s translated as “call on the way to see if there’s valet parking.”
