Wrapping things up
As per our discussion in class on Tuesday, we will not meet on Thursday, July 5, which was to be the final meeting of the session. Instead, we agreed that students will read classmates' story drafts and provide feedback via e-mail or telephone by Thursday evening.
Your revised, final drafts must be turned in by 2 p.m. on Monday, July 9. Please leave the hard copies in my mailbox in the English Department mailroom, which is on the third floor of Humanities. If you cannot turn in a hard copy because of travel plans, work or other obligations, send it to me via e-mail as an MS Word document.
Each student will receive an e-mail message from me by Thursday evening with the following:
- Feedback on the draft of your feature story. I will not copy edit or proofread your work -- that's your responsibility. I will give general suggestions for improving the story and point out any glaring errors of language, logic or journalistic practice.
- Feedback and grade for Assignment No. 3, the piece of commentary or criticism you handed in last week.
Please call me on my cell phone (518-210-6181) if you have any questions or concerns. I may not be able to respond to e-mail promptly this week. If you feel a face-to-face appointment is necessary, call me and we will arrange one between now and Monday afternoon.
Your final grades will be posted by the end of next week.
I think we crammed a lot of journalism into a six-week session. Hopefully you'll carry some of the concepts and techniques with you long into the future. I wish each of you an enjoyable summer and a prosperous future.
