Reminders and Links

Since y'all don't have a handbook, and your book is a little sketchy on the details of citation for MLA (particularly in-text citation), I want to remind you that you can take advantage of these sites as well:  OWL at Purdue and Diana Hacker's page.  Both of these are great resources for documentation.

Please don't forget that your second summary will be due on Wednesday.  Be sure to use the comments on your first summary to help you make improvements for the second.  Also, be sure to at least skim the essays about juveniles and jail in the textbook.

Finally, if you owe me any past work, try to get that to me as soon as possible.  I should be caught up with grading when I see you on Wednesday.

Email with questions or problems.

No Class this Week

Hello all.  I'm not feeling well this morning and, since I have to leave town shortly, I'm going to stay home and rest.

We are going to have to make a few adjustments to the schedule.  For now, be sure that you have a finished second draft of the first essay.  Check in with the blog on Thursday for more information.  (Including, I hope, a revised schedule.)

Thank you for being flexible this week.

(Stephanie and Grant--you should expect an email from me later on today--)
