Hopefully you’re all enjoying fall break!

If you’re looking ahead at the calendar, you’ll note that three of the four student-selected topics have been set (foreign policy, health care, and abortion), though I haven’t yet settled on readings. I’ve made these selections based on the information you provided me earlier in the semester.

You’ll also note that the fourth student-selected topic has not yet been set. That’s for two reasons. First, the three topics mentioned above may take longer than we originally planned. Second, I want to be sure we have sufficient time to continue working together on writing and on portfolio building. We’ll see how things develop over the next several weeks; if time allows, we can still consider a fourth topic.
