Office Hours Today

Hi everyone.
I will not be at my office hours today. I'm not feeling well. I will post when my replacement hours will be soon. Also, don't expect quiz grades to be updated for another week. I may get them done sooner, but I cannot promise anything.

AND a REMINDER:

NO CLASS TODAY! Enjoy your day off :)

Gospel Choir Concert

A few people have emailed me about the Gospel Choir Concert not being on the notecard concert list.
I have been informed by the higher-ups that it IS a notecard concert and you can attend with the purchase of the notecard ticket.
See you Tuesday!

Updates

I will post the grading scale for the class by Monday.

Reminder: Class on February 16th is canceled. We still have class next week (the 9th)!

Another Reminder: The next, and final, quiz is cumulative. If you want to know what questions you got wrong on the quiz and what the right answers were you need to come to my office hours. I cannot tell you the correct answers over email, I can only tell you your grades.

I will be posting the guide for how to fill out the concert attendance scantrons in the next few weeks. Please visit the website at least once a week to check for updates.

Have a good weekend!
