Your grade will be determined by four factors. Grading factors are as
follow:
Papers: 10% each
There will be three papers assigned for this course. If you would like
assistance with your writing, feel free to visit me during my office
hours. I also accept rough drafts of papers if you would like more
detailed criticism of work before you submit it for a final grade.
Details on how to submit rough drafts will be included in the paper
assignments.
Mid-Term Examination: 15%
February 17, 1999
Final Examination: 30%

Review Sessions
Class Participation: 25%
Class participation is an important part of the learning process. It
is important for you to show up to class and contribute to the
conversation. Attendance will be taken. Quizzes are included in the
class participation grade. It is assumed that assigned readings will
be done before the class for which they are designated and that you
will have read and thought about the discussion questions prior to
that class session.
