READINGS AND ASSIGNMENTS FOR WEEK OF NOVEMBER 17-23, 2008

Important!!! Don't forget that rough drafts of your final papers are due in class on Monday, November 24!!! Rough drafts are worth 100 points, which will be accorded on the basis of completion (roughness is expected and absolutely fine, but I want to see a full-length rough draft, in other words) and timely submission.

This week's blog submission on Sunday, November 16, will be your final official round of blog posting. You may submit extra-credit blog posts on November 23, 30, and December 7 to either replace missing blog posts, or simply for extra credit.
