On the Road, Revised
by Dr. H - October 27th, 2015
The syllabus has changed! Modified syllabus is now linked in the sidebar, and also on Blackboard. The new pages 3 and 5 replace the old ones.
We’ll now take longer to read & discuss On the Road, and the writing assigment #4 has been changed to “How to Read a Memoir” and can potentially include either or both of our next two books, Hell’s Angels and Travels With Charley. Please note the revised due dates for the various parts / stages of the project, which is running concurrently with writing assignment #5, “How to Read a Film.”
