Calendar Post for September 23

• If you don’t have the flu, come prepared! It’s important as we’ll break into groups to workshop the first drafts of your Open Letter, which you should continue composing based on advice received in class today. We’ll also be hosting an observer from the English Department.

• Bring to class three copies of a partial letter draft (about 500 words or two double-spaced pages) as well as the Open Letter assignment handout distributed today. Don’t worry yet about how to properly address the letter.

• Two of these partial letter drafts should have your Writing Studio audience analysis post stapled to them, for your partners’ reference. The other letter draft is yours for note-taking.

• Finish reading Bjørn Lomborg's "Mr. Gore, Your Solution to Global Warming Is Wrong." Bring copies of that text as well as Edward O. Wilson's "Apocalypse Now" to class. Both texts have been uploaded to drop.io.
