Risk

Final papers are to be handed in at the beginning of class.  If you do not bring a paper to class you run a huge risk of getting your final version placed into the rough draft pile and tossed out at the end of the week.  Please follow the clear directions on your writing assignment sheets for both Phil of Sports and IOCC 201.  I have 100 papers to manage this semester and I need you to help me by following the simple directions to keep it all organized.

Study Sheet

The study sheet for the Jesus to Christ is in the library.  Somehow I do not have a digital copy anymore.  You must get a copy from the library.

Please make a coy and return one if the stack is getting short.

Soon, I will post the study sheet for this.

This is the same video as I have placed in the library.  You only need to watch part 4 "The First Christians."

Papers

Just a quick reminder; papers are due on the last day of class, not when we take the final!  They must be presented as a hard copy and stapled.

Here is a link to a web page that helps with MLA:

You are not required to write in MLA.  Remember, I ask you to write in the style your major area of study demands.
