Saturday Class Overview

Read the assignments before you come to the class date they are listed on, (If you don't get the reading done for the first Saturday, no worries, but it's good to get a head start) and be prepared for discussion.

This schedule is subject to change according to the needs of the class. It is your responsibility to stay informed about these changes by contacting me or another student for notes when necessary. You are responsible for the work listed if you are absent. There will be additional assignments and readings as necessary.

(S/S refers to the book Subjects and Strategies)
