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
YESSSS. SIGNIFICANTLY EASIER.
