BEST EMAIL EVER? I THINK SO:
Dear English 60, I've decided that instead of having you write a final paper, I'm going to give you a final take-home exam. (No connection, Scott and Rachel, to the conversations we had just moments ago!). Since about a third of you struggled with the short paper when given a topic, I worry that giving you a long paper on your own topic might be setting you up.
It will be due the same date: Sat., Dec. 19. It will be an open-book exam with 3 3-page questions. I'll hand it out a week before to a accomodate those of you who were trying to organize your time, and apologize if this disappoints or inconveniences you. Please let me know if this seriously screws up your planning, and we'll figure something out.
Have a good break, JF
