Welcome back and happy new year!
I hope everyone had a fun and relaxing Winter Break. I spent time in Los Angeles and read The Righteous Mind, Why Good People are Divided about by Politics and Religion, short stories from the David Foster Wallace Reader, and just started the novel On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous. I watched Star Wars, Marriage Story, The Morning Show, and Parasite. I also read some very interesting Frederick Douglass essays. :-)
Please note that there are no more weekly quizzes until next semester. Also, the last day to turn in make-up work for partial credit is Friday, January 10 at 11:59 p.m. PST. To be fair to all students, I can't make any exceptions to that cut-off time, and I need time to grade everything and post it to Aeries.
