Just make sure to bring me a hard copy tomorrow.

Missing essays

If you do not have a grade for an essay in the gradebook on canvas, you need to make sure that I have BOTH the hard copy and the internet copy of the essay in order to get that graded. If I asked you to redo the essay and turn it in, make sure you get that to me ASAP. And, if you have some difficulties in your writing that I have noted, please make sure to get help from the writing lab before you turn in that final essay on Thursday.
