Class Procedures and Reminders
Project Stack. On Friday, I read and replied to all the Week 9 assignments in the stack, leaving some Week 10 and Week 11 assignments that will be at the top of the stack for Monday. As always, you can check the stack to make sure I received your assignment.
Deja vu announcements. No, you're not experiencing deja vu! Now that we are moving into the final third of the semester, I'll be recycling some of my favorite items from announcements earlier in the semester, along with new things from the blog stream and Twitter stream as usual. :-)
The following items are for fun and exploration:
Blog Stream. I always enjoy the Wikipedia Trails, and this one by Cate is both eerie and cool: From “Dreams” to “Drawing Down the Moon Ritual”

Writing. Every letter counts! Here's a funny typo story from one of my favorite cartoonists, Tom Gauld.
HEART Video. This is a fun video from Bizzell Library; it's from a few years ago, and there are even more fun study spaces and services available in the Library now:
Event near Campus. Today is the AISA Fall Benefit Pow-wow at Thunderbird Casino (details).
