Unit 3 will be all about the Depression and the New Deal – EH Chapter 25. <\/p>\n

There will be an online quiz open from Monday, 2\/27 to Friday 3\/2 on Chapter 26. Don’t forget to take it! I had a couple of people who’ve let these slip a little. Please make sure to take the quiz online in Blackboard. <\/p>\n

Mon 2\/27<\/strong> our class will combine the cu<\/a>lture and economics of the Depression. Reading is EH Ch 25, pp. 687-697. The syllabus had “reading TBA” for Wednesday but we’ll drop that reading because…<\/p>\n

There will be no class on Wednesday, Feb 29th.<\/strong> I am taking another class to visit a US Citizenship Naturalization ceremony in Worcester and we have to leave early to get there, so I won’t be in class. <\/p>\n

Friday, March 2 <\/strong>will also be a special day: instead of our usual class, we will attend a lecture by a guest professor of Political Science, Alexandra Filindra, at 10:30 am in the Student Center Blue Lounge. She will be speaking about the eugenics movement, a timely topic since we just finished the unit on that. Attendance will be taken, same as if it were a regular class day, and I will collect the SkillBuilder #3 papers due that day at the event. <\/p>\n

Because of the lecture, we will push our “Primary Source Workshop” day to Monday the 5th<\/strong>; we’ll meet in our classroom as usual. If you want to get started on that paper before the workshop day, please do so; the guidelines are posted under the “PS Paper” tab above, and the books are all on 2-hour course reserve at the circulation desk in the library. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
