Reading Report Link

Exactly. Here is the reading report link, one more time so that it is obvious where it is.

Cheerio!

Papers Due

Just to let you all know, from this point on the paper due date of Monday, April 20th is firmly set. If papers are turned in late, they will be automatically docked 1/3 of a grade. No paper turned in after the morning of April 24th will be accepted without an approved incomplete for the class. (No graduating students can apply for an incomplete without it affecting their status as a graduate of MHGS.)

(If you have already spoken to me about a different due date, then that is OK for you, so don't worry.)

If you have questions, please ask either Ed or myself.

Thanks!
Chelle

Turning in Journals this Wednesday

Hello All,

Journals are due this coming Wednesday. Please turn in all materials to the front desk. (I'll warn Molly.) I'm around all day, so I'll go down periodically to pick up your work.

If you really want to hand your stuff in directly to my greedy, wee hands, I'll be in my office from about 1PM on. I'll be with students. Just knock and the door will be opened for you. (You know, that sounds vaguely familiar...)

Peace,
Chelle

Things coming up!

OK. Y'all have a couple of assignments are due over the next week or so.

One of them is the reading report or bibliography. Here is a LINK to a document that lists all of the assigned readings for the term. That is due on Monday, April 20th.

Here are the dates due for the other assignments:

Journal (both options): Wednesday, April 15th

Creative Project: Wednesday, April 15th (Your projects can be brought to school on the 15th or the 16th. We'll be hanging up art projects on the Thursday. Any volunteers to work on displaying projects, etc.? If you are playing music or performing something on April 17th, your performance is your 'turning in.')

Research Paper: Monday, April 20th

If you have questions, let me know!!

Peace,
Chelle

Classic Religious Sectarian Joke

OK, here is a little random, cynical religious humor for y'all:

I was walking across a bridge one day, and I saw a man standing on the edge, about to jump. I ran over and said: “Stop. Don’t do it.”

“Why shouldn’t I?” he asked.

“Well, there’s so much to live for!”

“Like what?”

“Are you religious?”

He said: “Yes.”

I said: “Me too. Are you Christian or Buddhist?”

“Christian.”

“Me too. Are you Catholic or Protestant?”

“Protestant.”

“Me too. Are you Episcopalian or Baptist?”

“Baptist.”

“Wow. Me too. Are you Baptist Church of God or Baptist Church of the Lord?”

“Baptist Church of God.”

“Me too. Are you original Baptist Church of God, or are you Reformed Baptist Church of God?”

“Reformed Baptist Church of God.”

“Me too. Are you Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1879, or Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1915?”

He said: “Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1915.”

I said: “Die, heretic scum,” and pushed him off.

(Hey, I did say that it was a cynical joke!!)
