Extra Credit Opportunity

The Environmental Council is sponsoring three presentations on January 29 and 30 as part of "Focus the Nation: Climate Change", a nationwide "teach-in" about climate change.

One event is a noon brown-bag seminar, one is a showing of the film, An Inconvenient Truth followed by a discussion, and the third is a panel discussion.

You may attend one of these three events and complete a Speech/Seminar Critical Analysis extra credit project (worth two extra credit points). Be sure to read the project directions linked above. You may elect to do a little less work and complete a media watcher project for the film for one extra credit point.

If you decide to do one of these projects, plan to arrive early - seating may be limited. Plan to stay for the entire presentation, including any discussion or question and answer period following the formal presentation. Don't disrupt the event by arriving late or leaving early.

Two copies of the text book will be on permanent reserve at the Undergraduate Library Circulation Desk.
