feedback• “got to go”–had to go–needed to go
• do not include speech in your summary–“no quotations”
• summary writing is often written in the past tense–hang: hung

• : while, during that time that– I saw him as I was coming into the building
• : in the same way– As I was just saying, I think the proposal needs further consideration
