Today is our last meeting before the midterm exam. Next week we will meet online at our regular time to introduce you to the online writing platform. This should not take more than 1-2 hours. In two weeks there will be no meeting since that is midterms week. You will be given the midterm questions next week and submissions will be due on Friday, October 14th. Our regular meetings will resume in three weeks on the 14th of October.
