Office hours set
My office hours this semester will be TR 12:30 to 3:30. I have added this information all web pages and syllabi.
Remember: I'm in my office a lot. If you drop by on MWF, the chances are pretty good that you'll catch me.

I've made two important changes to the MED581 syllabus:
1. There are now just two grading criteria for the weblog entries.
2. Weblog entries will be due by noon on Mondays--the day before our first class meeting of the week.
Make checking this blog VERY easy. Subscribe to the RSS feed. RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. Here's some information about RSS from Wikipedia. There's a lot more here than you need to know. All you're interested in is learning how to subscribe to a feed from a browser or newsreader.
There are many ways to subscribe to an RSS feed. You can do it through your Google home page (assuming you've set up one). You can use a browser. I like Flock best.
Or, you can use a free (!) dedicated newsreader (application), such as:
For JRN374 and JRN378 students, I can show you how to do this in class. For MED581 students, well, you're on your own--but I'm happy to help you if you want to stop by my office.
Remember: You don't have to use RSS to read this blog. RSS simply makes keeping track of it much easier.
Okay, I'll make it real easy for you. Here are the direct links to my class syllabi:

Please read your syllabus carefully. Come to class on Thursday ready to ask questions.
Hi! Welcome back to school, and welcome to The J Cafe. I hope you had a fun and productive summer.
This blog will be a clearing house for information about all my classes. What will you read here? Anything that I need to communicate with you as a class. So you should check this blog regularly. If you're really slick about it, you can plug the RSS feed into your newsreader or web browser. If you have no idea what that is, I'll walk you through it in class. That way checking is automatic.
To help you organize the information on this blog, I have set up categories so that you can easily find any posting that has scrolled off this page. You'll find these on the sidebar.
You'll find numerous links that you may find useful for class on the sidebar. And you'll also find some useful resources on my main site Rhetorica.
If you haven't done so already, please go to my faculty site to find your class and syllabus. Be sure to read the syllabus carefully and bring questions to class on Thursday.
