Last semester almost half the students in my class failed. Before you get scared and conclude that I don’t like my students, let explain how that came about. This class is a composition class. In composition there are certain rules of formality that must be followed in order to clearly communicate. It is unfortunate that these days many students feel that formal rules are not necessary. When 1 grade a paper and I see that you have misspelled a word, you have lost 10 points. If you have used inadequate punctuation, that can cost you up to 15 points. Additionally, any paper that you can not finish on time will not be accepted. Any theme that is not submitted on time will not be graded. You will have to read all the assignments. I will give quizzes on the reading assignments in order to make sure that you are keeping up on your readings. The class meets on Tuesday and Thursdays. Your final grade is based on the total scores of the four tests, several quizzes and six theme papers. Any time you have a problem I would seriously recommend that you come to see in my office. My office is located on the fourth floor of the building directly in front of the building we are in now. The hour is 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm on the same days as class. For Thursday you write an essay about your readings from the short story on Page 74 of the textbook. If there are no questions, that will be all for today.
