Homework

The "Getting to Know You" Blog Post for this week is an "Exam Vent". I want you to vent, complain, and rage upon college exams. This can be a discussion about how unfair it is that you have to take exams in college and what you think professors should do instead. Or it can be just a vent on how you're doing with your exams and your struggles. If you enjoy the exams, or recognize their value, then talk about that. (Due Monday, October 30th)

Finalize your Midterm Portfolio (Due Friday, October 27th)
