Turn in the essays by email.

Attendance

Good attendance (0 absences that have not been excused) is expected, is essential for taking good notes, and will aid you, along with real-time in- class participation, if you have a borderline grade (and have completed all of the required assignments). (Note that if tardy, you should see me after class to make sure you have not been counted absent.)
