So long, farewell

As you probably all know, the final grades have been posted. If there are any questions or issues, please don’t hesitate to let me know.

Papers can be picked up in the Hum & Lang office (HH100); please do pick them up because there are comments which may be helpful for future assignments.

I really enjoyed the class. You are a lively group and our discussions were fun. Hope to see some of you in other classes.

And thank you for your patience.

Best wishes for all of us for the coming year!

Dr. J.

PowerPoint

presentations are now added to the Schedule. Let me know if there are any problems.

Review class today canceled

due to the weather.

I will be posting the class notes to the schedule today.

If you have any questions or concerns about the exam, drop me a line here on the blog in a comment, or via email.

I will a notice here on the blog when the assignments are marked.

It’s a shame that we are missing our final meeting. I have enjoyed the class immensely; you are a great group and lots of fun to teach. I hope I see some of you in future classes.

Tuesday

we will continue our discussion of Gulliver’s Travels. If anyone is going to F’ton to the rally and march, I will not be taking attendance and will be more than happy to meet and go over what you missed later in the week.

The schedule has been rearranged accordingly.

FYI

Dear Dr. Jones,

The 3rd volume replacements have arrived here for your students.  There were 8 who had the misprinted copies, and we have their names here. Perhaps you could mention this in class.

Thank you and
Best regards,
Julie

Still on the waiting list?

Dr. David Creelman has asked me to tell you that as of this writing he has five places left in his English 2003: Introduction to Fiction course (MWF 12:30-1:30pm).

Potential problem with some copies of the anthology

I just had the following message from the UNBSJ bookstore:

It appears that one of the books has been misprinted, Restoration & 18th century. The pages are printed upside down and out of context at page 334. I am in the process of dealing with the publisher to see how to handle this, as we do not know if all the packages are the same. I had a student return as she had gone through the books and noticed it. When I opened another package here it was the same. Is it possible that you can ask you students to check and see if they also have misprinted copies, then I can advise the publisher how many are wrong, and hopefully they will send us just that book for replacement?

So, please look at your books and let Ms. Julie Godin at the bookstore know, a.s.a.p., if there is a problem. (She is usually at the counter at the back of the store, near the English textbooks).

Good thing someone noticed; we aren’t going to use that volume until close to the end of term!

Welcome

to the course weblog for English 2101: Literature in English I at UNBSJ. Here you will find links and updates and a copy of the schedule and assignments. More importantly, blogging is interactive — you can leave comments to any post — and so this blog can serve as a venue for continuing the conversations we will have in class. Not much to see yet, but check back in the coming weeks for further information.
