3. Sophomore Speech HW for over break:

The purpose of the sophomore speech is to persuade people to do something or to think about something in a new way. You can write the speech about a topic of your choice. For homework, select your topic and write me a one page description of the topic. You don't have to tell me what you will argue in your speech; rather, just explain the topic, what you know about it, and why you're interested in it.

4. Amnesty Day--Wed. Jan. 4th 2012. If you are missing any work this term, have it with you (completed, of course) to hand in that day for partial credit.

5. Looking ahead to after break, everyone will have to select one story that we haven't read yet from "African Short Stories," and read it.
