Hello all,

I have posted your grades and comments for the second Patriots Journal assignment.  Most of you are really getting into the material and answering all of the assigned questions well.

I have just "opened" the Episode 4 Forum.  There were four groups, each with its own unique question.  You should now go back and read the posts and replies made by students in the other three groups to the other three questions that I assigned.  You will see examples of terrific posts and replies.  More importantly, you should gain a knowledge of other class material, ALL OF WHICH will be fair game for your midterm exam next week.

Speaking of next week, you will see your reading and video watching assignment for the week.  While there is not forum or journal entry, you should spend the week studying for your midterm exam, to be taken by the deadline (between Thursday and the following Monday).  

You will find a midterm exam study list posted under the Handouts link.  Print yourself a copy and study it well.  To take the midterm exam itself, you will have to come to the Social Science Testing Lab, CEN456, during open hours.
Thurs      9:00 am - 7:00 pm
Friday     9:00 am - 5:00 pm
Mon       10:00 am - 7:00 pm
You will take your exam, without use of books or notes, on either Thursday, Friday, or Monday.  The exam should take you one hour or less to complete, and it must be submitted, not simply started, by 7pm.  The testing lab will refuse to let students begin tests less than one hour before the lab closes, so plan accordingly.

I wish you a successful week of study, test preparation, and exam score.

Joe
