Reminders for wrapping up the semester:

• Please check the Campus Portal to confirm that I have given you credit for all of your work and attendance. If you find an error, please let me know immediately.
• If you failed to submit your research paper through TurnItIn.com, you won't get credit for it until you do. (The class id is 16104258 and the enrollment key is fys17.)
• Likewise, if you did not include your Annotated Bibliography with your research paper as instructed, please submit it on TurnItIn.com to get credit for it. 
• You have been sent a link to a course survey for the class. Please complete the mandatory survey so that I can submit a final grade for you.

The final exam will be a two-part take-home exam, due on TurnItIn.com by the end of the scheduled final exam period, Thursday, 12/14, 10:30 a.m. You may complete it any time beforehand.
