Hi everyone,
Sorry I was out today, I threw my back out over the weekend and couldn’t make it in. There is no homework, however, you should be nailing down your ideas for the natural disaster project. Please check out Engrade and make sure all your assignments are submitted. I will be entering your quarter grades on Tuesday afternoon. If there are any issues, you can email me through engrave, or see me in class.

Don’t forget to bring headphones tomorrow

See you in class.
