I like to encourage my students to participate in extra-curricular events whenever they have time. I especially like to encourage to get involved with fine arts events on campus, and I occasionally give an extra credit point or two to students who participate in these vents.I'd like to particularly encourage you to attend the faculty recital on Thursday, September 19, at 7:30 p.m. in JFAC. I'd also like to encourage you attend the senior recital Sunday at 3:00 in Krikac auditorium. For extra credit, just click on the "comment" button below and let me know what you liked best at the recital. If you post as an anonymous blogger, be sure to include your name at the end of the post.
You can also get credit for attending the Kenneth Meier's Constitution Day presentation. He'll be speaking at 7:00 p.m. in JFAC 134 on Tuesday, September 17. He'll be talking about the politics of education reform, an important subject and certainly relevant to some of what we'll eventually talk about in class.
Neither the speech nor the recitals not work with your schedule? Don't worry. I will give you extra credit for attending any of student organization meeting or event this week or next. Just indicate here which event you attended and say why you think participating in an event like this is part of a well-rounded college education.
