Re: Rescheduling Classes
As I mentioned last Wednesday evening, October 1, I will be out of the country next Wednesday evening, October 8 (at a "Journalism in Cyberspace" conference in Warsaw, Poland).
So there will be no class October 8.
We will next meet Wednesday evening, October 15, at which time the assigned reading will be that originally designated for October 8. This will continue until we get the makeup class behind us. (That is, on October 22 we will cover the material assigned for October 15.)
Thursdays seem to be best for makeups for most of you. (No date and time ever works for everyone.) At this point it looks like Thursday, October 30 may be the first time we can schedule an additional class. Pencil that in for now, assume that's what we'll do, but confirm it as the day approaches. If we do, the schedule/assignments memo of August 28th will be modified as follows (new, correct date first, original date second).
