Post #1: Welcome to the Blog

Welcome to our Monday blog. Instead of a live Zoom session, we will meet here every Monday for some light conversation. This is an opportunity to communicate outside of the formal texts and assignments we work on in class. 

Sure, the topics can be scholarly and connected to readings. But they don't have to be. Each week, 1-2 students will submit an original blog to keep the conversation going. I ask that everyone log in at some point on Monday to drop a comment on their posts. You will receive a grade for your original blog and comment participation at the end of the semester. 

Go to the Pages area of Canvas for more details. 

I look forward to hearing from each of you this semester!
