Did I Miss Anything?
 Nothing. When we realized you weren't here
we sat with our hands folded on our desks
in silence, for the full two hours
 Everything. I gave an exam worth
40 per cent of the grade for this term
and assigned some reading due today
on which I'm about to hand out a quiz
worth 50 per cent
 From: Tom Wayman : Poems
– Complete poem at:

tm
 What is my point?
– You need to be here for every class (being online counts), you
need to be on time and you need to do your work, and you
need to follow the class policies as stated in the syllabus
You are in Charge
• When you miss class it is your choice and your
responsibility.
• When you do not turn in your assignments,
there was a choice along the line somewhere.
• I hope you choose self-responsibility.
• Have a great and fun semester!
