Attendance

Hi Guys,

This only affects a few of you but wanted to share with all. I am encouraging ALL of you to attend the last 2 weeks of class EVERY day. There are a few of you who, for various reasons, have missed more than 4 days of class. Some of you have even missed 8 days. There are only 8 weeks (with four days each) in the Summer II session, which is 32 days total.

Those who have missed 4 days will at best receive 87 points out of 100 for attendance, and those who have missed 8 will at best receive 75 points. That's a lot to miss and a lot to try to make up in other areas of the class!

I realize it's an early class and maybe not your favorite topic, but don't waste away points that could easily boost your grade in the end. Earn a B or C because the topic was hard, not because you didn't feel like attending.

To those who have faithfully attended, I applaud you for waking up so early and please hold on for another week and a half. We're almost done!

Don't forget the Bacchae tomorrow!!
