1984 . . . First Actual Grade Today

TODAY IN CLASS
After several days of reading time in class, some group-generated questions, discussion time, and a study-question handout. . . .we had an actual quiz today.  It covered what the book calls Chapter One (composed of what really seem like smaller chapters), ending on p. 104.

If you were absent today or did not take it today because of multiple (not just one) absences over the past few days, you must make it up before class time on Friday.  I'll be here pretty early Friday morning, so that will be OK.  (Of course, Thursday afternoon will also work.)

FOR TOMORROW and next week
You have from today (Wed. afternoon) until next Wednesday to read Chapter Two; I said today that it needed to be finished by Tuesday, and I think that is FULLY do-able, but II is longer than III, with one fairly tough section.  Section Three must--no exceptions, changes, or extensions--be finished by Friday, June 3.

You will see that anyone who does not have the Outsider essay online now has a 0 in that slot.  Those who have it turned in still show an asterisk, but the score and a short comment will be showing up over the next several days.  People with a 0 can still salvage a late score.  See me tomorrow.
