HW for Tuesday, 10/15 --VERY IMPORTANT!!!

We only have three days of class left.

A few things to keep in mind:

1) Your IRP (which is 25% of your final grade for the session) is due Thursday, 10/24.  I will not be giving extensions, so if you don't have it completed, chances are slim that you will pass the class.

2) You have the next week to work on make up work for this class.  THAT DOES NOT MEAN YOU DO NOT HAVE HOMEWORK!  This is a lifeline for those of you who are missing assignments and in danger of failing.
