Dear Students, if you would like to pick up your research paper on Wednesday, you will find me in Cuvilly 1 starting at 8:45. Feel free to pop your head into the room during my 9:00 am class and I can hand you the paper or will have the stack near the door.
If you can't stop by during that time window but would like to pick up your paper, please let me know by email and I will leave it for you to pick up later at the Dorothy Stang Center. I will only leave papers at the Stang center for those of you who ask me to do that. I don't want to leave them the whole stack.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday with your family and friends.
