Class Procedures and Reminders
Week 9 Reading. Thanks to Kylie for letting me know that there was something weird about Canvas yesterday, where the Week 9 Reading items were not where they were supposed to be (one was in Week 8 and the other was in Week 10; I have no idea what happened!). Everything should be fixed now, and if you ever notice something hinky like that in Canvas, just let me know so I can fix it. :-)
Project Stack. I'm currently working on the Week 7 projects in the stack right now. This week is a big mix of Week 7-8-9 projects in the stack, so thank you for your patience while I work my way through that. As always, you can check the stack to make sure I received your assignment.
The following items are for fun and exploration:

And some of you may know Professor Joshua Landis here at OU (we came to OU the same year, so we are old friends!); he shared this important article about depictions of Muhammad: How the "Ban" on Images of Muhammad Came to Be.
