If class participation becomes uneven among students or if it lags, I will assign responsibility to individuals for class facilitation for particular class meetings. Papers are to be submitted within the first five minutes of the respective class meeting as assigned. All exams and any other assigned work must be completed in order to pass the course. Study groups are especially useful for discussing assigned readings. All written coursework, however, must be your own, consistent with Colby policy as specified in the Colby Student Handbook.
All papers are due at the beginning of the class period only.
Take notes on course materials as you read them doing so will facilitate learning and retention and save you an enormous amount of time over the term. Bring reading and lecture notes to class to aid you in your class participation.
