As we move into Spring Recess...

Good evening everyone. I want to alert you to a number of important matters as we approach our last week before Spring Recess at the College.

First, here is the link to The Declaration of the Occupation of New York City, which I displayed in pamphlet form in class Monday. I highly encourage you to look at the entire document, still of particular note and new to you are the Preface and Publisher's Note (2-3), the Letter to the Occupy Movement from Tahrir Square (20-23), and the Resources (26-28). You can certainly use this document or any part within it as an outside source for your final project. Furthermore, you may seek out the listed resources for other potential research material for your paper.

Second, I want to remind you all of the various assignments due next week. Below, I have reproduced the class schedule for easy reference; however, I want to stress two things.
  1. I have extended the due date for the revision of the second paper until Wednesday, 4/4. This is so that this weekend you can solely focus on researching for the annotated bibliography, which is due this upcoming Monday, 4/2.
  2. The first rough draft of the research project is merely a one-page (minimum) outline of the final project-to-be. Please bring extra copies to class Wednesday.
