Juniors: ULM Library @ 4:00 on Sunday

Once you find the library's site, whether on campus or off, go to "Databases by Subject" and select "English." This will give you a list of all the databases ULM's library subscribes to that relate to English and Literature. JSTOR is the database we discussed in class, but there are several if you just explore a bit.

One note of advice regarding databases: the results lists usually give you choices when viewing; if you choose PDF then you can save onto your USB drive and then read and print at home. 

Bring all relevant sources to class on Monday, and we will discuss how to use them. This means you should read through your sources to see if they relate to your topic BEFORE you come to class. Please DO NOT wait until you get to school to crowd into the library and use every bit of ink and paper. If at all possible, print AT HOME. Thanks.

Homework

Seniors Your exam is on Thursday, and your final essay is on Friday. I'll talk more about the essay in class tomorrow.

As always, please use complete sentences and cite frequently from the text.

Monday Work

Sophomores We are going to discuss Ch11-16 in class Monday and finish answering the study questions for Tuesday.

Include whether or not you plan to pursue the career discussed in your research paper and why or why not. Also include plans for career post-graduation and any career-related plans for this summer. This paper can be informal in tone but should follow the conventions of college-level writing. Share with me via email as "lastname-addendum." We will also discuss the letter you will all write to your future selves (five years from now). Every year, the senior class writes a set of letters, and every year I mail a set from five years ago.This letter should include anything you'd like to remember about your senior year, or your goals and values right now, or your tastes and opinions.
