Writing for the Future: Fox Day

Just to clear things up, the official Rollins policy for Writing for the Future is that if Fox Day happens to be on a Tuesday this semester, all of my students (including both Holt and day school students) should come to class at the regular time, 4 pm.  I’ll let you out at 6 pm, a half-hour early.

Writing for the Future: For 3/17

Group Project
This week, we'll be both catching up on some things and looking ahead to others.

We'll be catching up on Paper 4. Some of you may have made changes on it. In any case, please remember to bring it in this week.

We'll also try to catch up on that in-class interviewing exercise. Please bring the notes you took for that.

As for looking ahead, we'll be forming small groups to begin work on your group project. Please give this some thought before class. What sort of topic or topics would you like your group project to cover?
