November 2011

 

As we approach the end of the Fall Semester, I wish you all Happy Grading, with wonderfully insightful essays, and few grammatical whoppers! If, on the other hand, your students' research skills seem wanting, consider adding a library session to your next syllabus. Even the most research savvy students might not know the ins-and-outs of using the library effectively.
