Essays must not exceed four typed, double-spaced pages. Make-up examinations should be approved in advance. In the absence of prior approval, scheduling of make-up examinations will require appropriate written documentation. In addition, students are required to participate in seven in-class discussions of the assigned readings. Discussions are scheduled on February 3, February 10, February 17, March 8, March 24, April 14, and April 28.
All papers are due on the scheduled day of discussion.
No late papers will be accepted. Students are still responsible for the reading on those dates that they elect not to write a paper. A separate grade will be awarded for class participation. Students will have the opportunity in class to discuss current research on women's history with these scholars. Extra credit will be added to the final examination grade.
