We took a short break and the instructor made copies of the syllabus for the four new students and three others who didn't have one.
After the break, we discussed research paper topics. Research paper topics were entered into a table. The link has been posted under "Links," at the left.
Next we listened to a few paired introductions.
After the intros, the new students stayed to pick up their syllabi and assignment sheets.
Next class:
Bring five sources per the assignment sheet (research paper).
Revise Works Cited, but consult your own style book to be sure it is correct.
Note: the bookstore says Lester will be available next Tuesday or Wednesday.
Notes to students:
This link is for Ebony, who is researching CEO salary caps.
Also: The average CEO compensation in the US today is 400 times the average workers' compensation in their company. In Germany the average CEO makes only 11 times their average workers compensation. In Japan its 10 times. The CEO of JAL (Japan Air Lines) was on TV news recently and said his compensation was $84,000 last year (less than what his pilots were being paid) because of tough economic times. Most US airline CEO's continue to pay themselves millions while their company loses billions and then goes to our government and demands US taxpayer funds to stay in business.
You may want to track down these statistics and verify them.
