Failure to meet the length requirement for any assignment will lower your grade. If any of these materials are missing, your grade will be penalized accordingly. If you are absent for peer review, that will mean an automatic penalty of one letter grade. The mid-term will cover the fiction, and the final will be an essay exam on poetry. You will answer.
All essays are due at the beginning of class on the due date.
Please be aware that an F is 55 points out of 100 possible points, while failure to turn in a paper is ZERO points out of 100. Therefore, you will fail the course upon your fifth absence. I will check roll each day and keep my own records, but I will not keep you posted of your absences. As adults, you are responsible for keeping up with your own absences. The other simple way to receive an F for this course is to use the words or ideas of another person as if they were your own.
