Down to Midsummer Intensive Session (6 weeks)
| | | NOTES: Work is due by end of the day, not start of the day. Students use the due day to complete work due that night. Vacations are allowed (this session only). Students may miss up to two due dates but must negotiate with the instructor which two, if any, at the start of the course. 10 assignments and 12 due dates allows each student to miss 2 due dates or to finish 2 weeks early. When a student takes vacation, the schedule moves to later (#2 is due when #3 was due, #4 is due when #5 was due, etc.). Assignments cannot be moved out of sequence. No textbook purchase is necessary.
