We will now meet in LP 106 on Fridays.

As we talked about last week, there will be no class on Tuesday, December 1.

Clay has to check in at 12:45 pm for his surgery. Therefore, I can’t see how I can make it back in time for class.

So, ENG 111 needs to finalize a topic for the oral presentation. ENG 232 needs to read O’Conner’s “Good Country People.”

I will see you all Thursday, December 3rd.

Working on upgrades, moving files, and adding plugins. This is a test.

Well, I’ve decided not to erase everything from the previous sememster.

So, we’ll just start fresh right here. There aren’t any announcements or assignments yet. I still have to get all classes onboard.
