Diversity & Tech #16 (October 30)

Announcements

Field trip TODAY! We will meet nearby atย 370 Jay Street,ย Room 220.

Midterm Updates:
After reading all your midterms this weekend, I was generally impressed with the level of cultural competence demonstrated by the articles! (I’m still in the process of calculating grades.)
For the second half of the semester, we will focus more on research competence, and to that end, I’d like to live-edit a few anonymized midterm articles during upcoming class sessions. Please fill out this form to grant or deny permission for your midterm to be respectfully live-edited during an upcoming class.

Agenda

2 PM: 370 Jay Street, Room 220
3 PM: Metrotech walking tour. The rain should be over by 3pm, but please be prepared for sprinkles.

Assignments
