Additional Resources for Spring 2018

English 1A with Professor Douglass

The Library:

You must have your own paper copy of Poverty / Privilege for this class. You need it for in class discussion and activities as well as quizzes and the final exam – for which you cannot have an electronic book. The first reading in the book is due at the end of week two on February 22, so you should have it by then at the latest. If you need a loaner to get you by for a couple days, you can make copies from the extra I put on one-hour reserve at the library:
