        <![CDATA[<p>We're getting down to the end of the semester. Here are a few things you need to know:</p> <p>1. If you handed something in and I haven't returned it, please say something! Every now and then I discover a student paper or assignment hiding in the middle of my brief case--usually because the student was absent on the day I returned them to the class.</p> <p>2. Double check your syllabus often. I've made some due-date changes and/or other minor changes. Ask if you have questions.</p> <p><strong>Class News:</strong></p> <p><strong>JRN374:</strong> I've made more due-date changes. Please check your syllabus. Also--SUPER IMPORTANT--you should plan some one-on-one time to work with me re: your feature assignment. And--SUPER IMPORTANT--don't forget your publishing requirement. A few of you have taken care of this. See me if you need help.</p> <p><strong>JRN378:</strong> Bring your raw assignment #2 pix to class so we can edit them in Photoshop before you turn them in.</p> <p><strong>MED581:</strong> Your case study is due soon.</p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p>Now that that we've survived October, I'll be back on a normal schedule. And back to communicating with you on the J Cafe.</p> <p>A few quick class notes:</p> <p><strong>JRN374:</strong> We'll be delving deeper into opinion writing this week. And will also make another sweep around the room to check on your feature stories. Come prepared with an idea--any idea--and we'll work on it.</p> <p><strong>JRN378:</strong> Your first photo assignment is due this week. Remember to turn it in by e-mail as a Power Point presentation. All pictures must have accurate cutlines.</p> <p><strong>MED581:</strong> This week we'll be discussing privacy. And I'll also prep you for your big week next week. That's when we split into teams for the cheesy prize competition.</p>]]>
