Exams: Mid-term and final exams will be given. The due date of the take home final is May 7, the date set by the registrar.

Journals: Unlike last semester, journals are due about every other week, beginning January 25. (A schedule of due dates follows the schedule of readings.) They are due on Fridays by 4:00pm.and should be sent to the email address above. Also unlike last semester, they will constitute a part of your grade not just for being sent in, but also for their content.

Institutional Analysis: This is an analysis of your placement, its role and function in society, in light certain readings we will be doing. A form describing how this is to be done will be distributed. They should be done progressively over the course of the semester, beginning as soon as possible.

Class grade will be determined on the basis of an approximate 65% - 20% - 15% breakdown between tests, journals and the institutional analysis respectively. Attendance at all class meetings and discussion groups, and preparation of reading assignments before the class, are all expected. As you know from the way I conduct class, participation in the class and in discussion group is a key component of this course: this can only happen, of course, if you are present and prepared. Lack of preparation and/or any unexcused absences from class or discussion may result in a reduction in grade at the discretion of the professor. I will be looking (listening) for those who tended to be quiet in the first semester to increase their participation.
