We got off to a great start for this class. We got a start on learning everyone's name, we went through the syllabus and you wrote your baseline essay. Don't worry if it felt a little overwhelming - I know it is a lot of information all at once. We will work together and go over course policies and materials again and again - and again - so hang in there.
BOOKS:
I just got back from the bookstore and as reported in class, there are currently no copies of Comment and controversy. The Bookstore person said the books would be in "soon." For those of you who would rather take action, I checked amazon and there are 68 copies available through intependent sellers. The price you get from amazon will be MUCH better than you get at the bookstore (used at the bookstore is around 60? ) If you plan to order online - order asap.
For Tuesday, September 8:
Read: Peter Elbow's essay "Freewriting". I handed out copies in class. Be sure to bring your copy of the essay to class.
Write: Revise your baseline essay and turn it in to ENG1031@gmail.com before class on Tuesday. There may be some problems with the Kean email system's spam filter; if you have trouble sending your essay for any reason, bring it to class on your flash drive and I will make sure you get credit for doing your work on time.
Have a great weekend, and see you next week.
