Updates on the schedule

1. Next week (Week 6) we will continue to talk about Prosecutors and Defense Attorneys.  There are no new readings for next week (so the readings on judges and juries are eliminated).  You do not have to submit a new journal. However, I gave everyone comments back on this week’s journal. If you would like to resubmit the journal on attorneys based on my comments, you may do so!  And you may have until Wed, 3/2 at 2 PM to resubmit.  This is not required, but I encourage everyone to do so!

2.  For Friday, 3/4, I ask that you read the introduction and first two chapters of Inside the FDA.

3.  For Week 7, your journal must cover the book Inside the FDA.  You do not have to include the discussion of Matthews and Kauzlarich as  we will not discuss that article until Friday, 3/11.

4.  If you would like an extension on your paper, I am willing to negotiate.  I’d like to get everyone’s paper in before spring break, but you may have a few extra days.  Please email me if you want an extension.
