Research topic meetings today (no class).
Notes * * *
Research topic meetings will take place on Sept. 22, 24, and 29.
In your individual research topic meeting, you'll tell me what your topic is, and I'll give you some advice.
- Make sure you are properly prepared -- that means you MUST read some scholarly articles about your topic BEFORE you meet with me.
- PLEASE do not waste your time (and mine) by failing to prepare for our meeting. The paper is a major undertaking, and you need to start work on it NOW.
About your book selection: Download the PDF relevant to the book review assignment. Please read at least two of the book reviews in that PDF before you select a book.
