No class this Tuesday, either

Well, scholars, I have a doctor's appointment Tuesday morning in Tullahoma, so we're going to miss our Tuesday class yet again. I apologize for the late notice. Once again, we'll simply do Tuesday's work on Thursday and move up our schedule accordingly. That means, for example, that your poetry unit exam is now scheduled for next Thursday, November 11. I regret that my health hassles are cutting into our class time, but we should have enough margin built into the schedule to cover all the work this semester. I hope you make good use of your time off, and I hope to see you again Thursday.
