Tuesday's class

I just created a course email list and posted what's below to the list. I repeat it here in hopes that everyone gets the message. Please spread the word in your other classes.

I have cancelled my trip to Connecticut this week and thus would like to hold class this Tuesday. I figure we could dedicate an entire day of class to discussing the Craft readings.

I would also like to cover some of the various definitions of rhetoric, since Purdue's professional writing major is intimately connected to classical and contemporary rhetorical theory.

I am still feeling pretty bad (I had a temperature of 102.5 when I got home from class the other day). I sincerely hope no one catches this, but if you begin to feel tired, or start coughing, visit PUSH immediately. I did not realize how sick I was becoming when I showed up for class.

I will attempt to look at some annotations later today and will certainly finish looking at them tomorrow. I hope everyone can make Tuesday's session. Thursday we will discuss creating a print annotated bibliography and the paper.
