So nice to see everyone in class tonight!

Just confirming that a completed Assignment 1 essay is due in class on Wednesday September 27, 2006 at 4 pm when class begins. Please see the Weekly Course Outline on pages 15 and 16 for more details.

Please come to September 27, 2007 class as scheduled-- we will be meeting in the 4th floor of Healey Library with Mrs. Louisa Tseng, Health Sciences Librarian.

Please do not plan to complete any remaining work on Assignment 1 during that 4-7pm class time-- as we will be busy exploring the Library's resources and taking a closer look at the details of the APA homework assignment during this class period. 

Thanks to each of you for passing the word about this announcement to other class members who may not see it.
