Summer office hours

Summer office hours for Michael Farris (effective June 25, 2013)

Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday

12.00-13.30

209b

Or by appointment.

I will certainly be late some days but will always stay until 13.30 or 90 minutes after arrival whichever comes last.

Essay final June 11-12, 2013

So this week, instead of regular class there will the essay final!

But there' a thing or three to remember.

Tuesday is  ONLY FOR PEOPLE WHO CANNOT TAKE THE TEST ON WEDNESDAY!!!

If you can, COME ON WEDNESDAY INSTEAD OF TUESDAY!!!

On Tuesday (for those poor souls who cannot wait until Wednesday). Class will meet in 302 instead of 322 (it's right across the hall so you shouldn't get lost).

On Wednesday the class will meet in the normal room (212c).

Since we don't have extra time (especially on Tuesday) MAKE SURE YOU ARRIVE EARLY SO THAT YOU HAVE THE FULL 90 MINUTES (and you don't disturb people trying to write with your late arrival)!!!! 

 You may bring your index if you have completed all three writing assignments.

Remember, Tuesday if you must.... (risking Heartbreak)

And such a groovy Wednesday for the rest.

Any questions? Write!
