I didn't want to listen to the rest of the story. Too long and too busy. It needs major restructuring. Rewrites must be handed in within one week of the date the original assignment is returned to you, and must be accompanied by the original. I will weigh the new grade together with your original grade.
Every assignment is due on or before the deadline.
If you know you will miss a class, get the homework to me before class. If there is an emergency that will prevent you from turning an assignment in on time, I expect you to e-mail me or call me in advance. I will not accept assignments after the class during which they are due. This may be difficult for some students who aren't used to the intensity of a newsroom, but mastering the art of meeting the deadline here will serve you well throughout your broadcast career. Attendance will be taken.
