Important Note to Students

The HAMLIT assignment page is a convenience but not something to be dependent on. When possible, homework and reading assignments will be posted here, but you are expected to complete all assignments that are announced in class on time, regardless of whether they are posted online. If you are absent, or do not remember if there is an assignment, you will need to contact another member of class to verify what the assignment is. Neither I nor the site are responsible for your failure to complete this responsibility.

End of break clarifications

We are reading through chapter 33 of Huck Finn during break. Hopefully you got this information during class, and if not, hopefully you still have enough time to complete your reading.

Your next essay, which is due January 8th, is explained in the post on December 11th. It is not based on Huck Finn, but rather has you synthesize information from the documents attached to the post. It is similar in feel to a DBQ with the major exceptions being that you can use semi-formal voice (I and we are acceptable to context) and you must quote from the documents.

Hope this is helpful; email if you have any questions.
