Students will be responsible for providing their own blue books. DO NOT miss an exam. Students are required to revise and assemble their weekly writing assignments into a final, coherent document by the end of the course. As a major part of this class will be a discussion of the materials, regular class attendance is essential, and participation in class discussions is worth a full letter-grade. Most class discussions will focus on the reading assignment, so a thoughtful reading of the materials assigned each week is expected.
Students are responsible for getting any missed materials.
Mid-Term Exam, Friday. Neither cheating nor plagiarism can be tolerated in the academic environment. Check the Student Handbook for guidelines, and be sure to use proper citation for all written work. Students who are caught engaging in academic dishonesty will be flunked for the course. The educational environment aimed for in this class is one of easy access and inquiry.
