Your projects are due on October 24. That is next Friday.
Today is the last time you will be able to work on them in class.

Homework:
Respond to one of the blog posts listed at the end of this.

Make sure you have at least one image or hyperlink in your post.

Talk about the issue (don't just merely summarize the article).

What does the article make you think about? Who does it make you think about? How does it connect to you or women in your life?  Tell the reader a story that connects (even if it is loosely connected). Make it engaging.
