Next week, groups 1-3 will meet on Monday in class, groups 4-6 on Wednesday, to discuss our first reading (The Destruction of the Indies). Groups not meeting can use the time to work on the lab. Don't forget to have your online posts finished by Monday at 10:00 am.

Welcome Back! 08/18/2011
 
Before the first day of class, I highly recommend you look through the syllabus on this site and familiarize yourself a little with the assignments. We'll be going over the structure of the course on the first day of class.

In the meantime, you may also want to get a head start on obtaining textbooks. These are listed on the syllabus (follow link to your right).
