All assignments must be read in advance of class discussion. All students must have e-mail accounts . Every week, each student must e-mail to the entire class a one screen length critical comment based on that week's reading assignments. These questions and comments must be e-mailed no later than the evening before class and will serve as a basis for class discussion. Late questions will not receive credit.
Topics are due five days before the paper due date.
Do not miss class because you must finish an essay. Essays submitted after the start of class on the due date will be considered late. You may submit a draft of your essay for preliminary criticism and comments, sending it me via e-mail at least one week before the due date. At this time, I will not make any detailed editorial comments but will focus on general matters of structure, development, logic, and coherence. The revision is due no later than Monday April 2.
