Upcoming Readings and Schedule Updates

Hello Everyone,

Be sure to double check the schedule of readings and written assignments, as there are many specific readings in The Bedford Handbook which we will encounter during this third segment of the course that you need to be aware of so that you can plan ahead accordingly. As I mentioned in class today, we are but seven short weeks away from finals and these seven weeks are going to go by quickly. Therefore, stay on top of your game and keep a close watch on your time management, balancing your coursework accordingly, as this semester begins its final descent. 

Here you can find the upcoming in-class reading from Hacker's text for Wednesday, p.486f, 442-458. Please preview these pages, printing them if necessary, so that you are adequately prepared for class. The subsequent reading, p.462-475, can be found here as well, come early Tuesday afternoon.

Also, here is the Hempel with Lehman article, titled, "The MySpace Generation." You are to have this article read for Monday, 11/1. This text is also found in the Mercury Reader on pages 12-22.



The major change to the schedule that I need to mention concerns two dates:
  1. Wednesday, November 3rd -- I spoke with the Department Secretary today and she informed me that our class is to meet this day. If this changes for any reason, then I will inform you. Otherwise, proceed with the schedule as planned.  
  2. Wednesday, November 10th -- This day is our tentative field trip, hooray! I will let you know how we will proceed closer to the date, but in the meantime please keep your ears open for the meeting room and time.
