Preliminary Business
- Text Purchase Issues:
- UCEN bookstore will return books as of May 2
- SBPrinters has sold out of the required reader for our course. The reader can still be purchased by special ordering it from them.
- Upcoming reading assignments -- See Schedule
- Read the novel, Thomas Pynchon' The Crying of Lot 49
- Midterm exam: Friday, April 29th (50-minutes, in class)
- Exam on readings in the course to date. The exam is more or less "factual." It is designed to see if students recognize and comprehend key ideas, specifics, and other material in the readings. It will also include some questions specific to material or comments the professor presented in lecture (i.e., "you had to be there"). The exam is designed to reward students who regularly keep up with readings and attend lectures and sections.
- Four sections of exam:
- Short-answer -- key concepts, characters, names, key phrases, etc.
- Multiple-choice
- Identification -- key or representative passages
- Bonus (extra credit) section based on lectures
- For students who have an unavoidable scheduling conflict for the day of the midterm exam:
- Be sure your TA knows about it.
- Directly contact Meg Wilson, Instructional Program Assistant for the English Dept. (SH 3431), who is assisting in arranging alternative exam times/locations. Meg's contact info is: 805-893-7489 mwilson@hfa.ucsb.edu
Lecture 11 - Co-lecturers: Alan Liu & Alanna Bartolini
