Last day of class. :(

Yesterday was the last meeting with Sections 04 and 05; today I see 01 for the last time this year.  It really has been a pleasure teaching you, and being taught by you.

Many thanks to Christie and Rachel for bringing in treats for everyone on the last day of class!

Tomorrow is the final exam.  Not to worry.  I'm sure you will all do well if you concentrate on the following subjects we covered this semester.
  • Guns, Germs & Steel / Papua New Guinea
  • Egypt, both ancient and modern
  • Ancient Greece
  • Ancient Rome - Republic and Empire

100 objective questions.  Two essays.

Do not bring your computer to the exam - you will not be allowed to turn it on before, during, or after the exam.

In order to keep you from racing through the exam, you cannot turn in your exam any earlier than 12:15.  Use the time to recheck your answers on the objective section.  Re-read your essays and do the editing necessary to make them excellent.

If you want, you may bring notes for another class (Math, Spanish, Earth Science, etc.) to study after 12:15.    No computers - just handwritten notes, index cards, and the like.

Section 01 tests in room 321, Section 04 in room 105, and section 05 in room 106.

The best of luck to all of you on your exams, and I hope you have a terrific summer break!  See you next year ... as sophomores!
