Thursday, October 11th (.941)

Today we will finish the last few S&T Presentations and move on to drafting our Reflective Overviews. I will provide a sample for you to see one of the ways a RO can look. We will also schedule conferences for next week, so please make sure to sign up before you leave class today.

...until your Reflective Overview is due.

Reminders

• You must clear all holds prior to registration at the end of the month.

• One of the holds that some of you have on your account is connected to the Think About It activity. You are required to complete this in order to lift the hold.

• Go to this page to access the Think About It.

• The course takes approximately 60 minutes to complete, so set aside some time to take care of it.

• Writing Project 2 is due today for 1302.

• If you are interested in American Politics in action, the flyer attached here is for a debate occurring between two Texas candidates running for Senator.

• The two candidates represent two very different (but popular) perspectives present in America.

• Research Conferences for Tuesday, October 16th.
