It’s already retreat time!  We leave on Tuesday, October 13 at 10:00 am for Fort Flagler and return not later than 5:30, October 15.   Please gather at 10 am in COM 110.

If you haven’t turned in your field trip waiver (because, for example, you were sick), a copy is available under downloadable files. Please remember to also bring:

  • A typed copy of your “How I Write” session and your typed impressions of the meeting you had with the tutor including any learning goals and outcomes you wrote for yourself.  STAPLE THESE TOGETHER!!
  • For our second seminar discussion of Diallo, bring one solid question (typed) which is left for you after our first discussion.  The question should be substantial enough that you can use it to lead a 5-minute discussion in seminar.  Make sure your question references a specific citation from the text.
  • Your stone
  • Your dream journal
  • Any text suggestions you have for winter quarter.  You should submit your ideas in writing including text and author as well as a short statement about why the text would be a good choice for our program.  While we realistically can’t choose all your books, your ideas are important to our selection process which will happen during week 3.

Some notes about upcoming work:

When we return, week 4, our Tuesday schedule will be irregular.  We will be continuing our research methodology work with Sarah Pedersen and each seminar group will spend 90 minutes in the library.  Mukti’s group will meet from 8:30-10:00, Terry’s from 10-11:30 and Cynthia’s from 11:30-1:00.  There will not be any more class in the morning, although we will have seminar as usual from 2:30-4:30.

Cynthia’s video pick of the week:  Piano Stairs
