Did it tell you something you didn't know or hadn't thought about?
Was it unclear to you?
Do you find what the author says debatable?
Do you think it particularly important to the argument of the piece?

Entry 1: Welcome to the Blog

| 2 Comments | No TrackBacks
Hi all:

I will post entries here and ask you to write a comment on them in this blog space.

Please be aware.  This blog is out there in public space.

If you feel writing an entry here might violate your privacy in some way, let me know and we will work out an alternative.

In any case--to protect your privacy--I suggest you sign your comments with your first name only follow by the first number of the time of your W109SS section.

For example, if your first name is Archey and you are in the 2-315 W109SS, you would sign your comment "Archey1." Or if your name is Elise and you are in the 330-445 W109SS, you would sign in as "Elise3."

As these remarks might suggest, I am teaching two W109SS's this fall quarter and decided to mingle the blog comments in one blog rather than making a blog for each class.

If you post your comment and do not see it immediately in the blog space, not to worry.  I have to check the comments before they are posted to blog space.

Any questions, please ask in class.

And Welcome!

Nick
