Class Procedures and Reminders
Week 12 begins! That means the British and Celtic units begin in Myth-Folklore, and reading of your choice in Indian Epics (although the Bizzell items are not available now, sad to say). Meanwhile, because of the mega-grace period, the Week 11 assignments are all still available this week also.
Project Stack. As always, the stack is huge on Monday! I will start with the projects that were turned in last week, working through the projects in the order they were turned in. Meanwhile, you can check the stack to make sure I received your assignment, and I want to say thank you to all of you have been working on your projects: it's great having all these stories to read!
