An On-Going Vacation Post

1) The official essay assignment with due dates and break-downs was given out in class on Friday.  Here's the link to that hand-out:

Read carefully; I'm not summarizing here.

2) I've posted the objective section of the Hamlet test.  Yes, it was somewhat difficult, but several of you really rose to the occasion and did quite well.  Here is how I softened the blow for to help the classes as a whole:
Everyone's posted score has 3 points added to it--this was in part to take care of one or two especially tough questions.
There is an additional curve provided by figuring the score as the number correct (plus the 3 mentioned above) out of 50, rather than the 52 actual questions.

Stay tuned for more grades--and probably further additions to this post--as the week goes on.

Hope you are having a good break..  To those in the Seattle area--let's hope for a bit of spring sunshine!!
