Written assignments turned in after the due date will be marked down. Your absence on the day the assignment was made or collected is not an adequate excuse for not completing the assignment. Assignments are to be done before, not during class. Questions are encouraged. Be sure to take good notes in class as most lecture material will not be found in the assigned reading, but rather the lectures will supplement your reading.
Assignments are due on the date assigned.
You will be expected to participate in the collective effort of the course. For each paper, you will focus on a section of the literature assigned for that week, identify the major themes and ideas of that section of the literature, and criticize that section of the literature.
