Hello to you all--
I'm sorry for this late message but today's class will need to be canceled. It's a long story, and I'm not going to bore you with it, but the short version is this: I have my fair share of auto-immune issues and have been having a flare up of symptoms. I had an appointment with my doctor for tomorrow, but they needed to cancel it and rescheduled me for this afternoon at 2:00. There is no way I can go to the doctor and then also get to a place where I can even zoom teach. But if I cancel this appointment I will get pushed far into next month, and that's just not going to work. So I need to cancel this class so that I don't have to cancel and/or teach on zoom for many others. I know this is last minute. I got the message from the doctor's office at 9 this morning. I accepted without really thinking about the timing of it.
This message will be repeated on our class syllabus page and on the class update page.
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR WEDNESDAY:
Please come to class with the notes for your one article that you need to find. And have read the Why Johnny Can't Write article. You do not need to do a reading journal. Simply come prepared to discuss and write about both articles in class.
Again, I am sorry for such short notice. Will not make a habit of it. Will definitely see you on Wednesday.
