Please add here your comments on the Student Activities Fair. Which of the organizations/activities represented at the Fair interests you the most?

Bonus: which organization offered the best "freebies"?

No chance to visit the Fair? Well, you can do the next best thing: look at the on-line list of student clubs on the NSU web site (http://www.northern.edu/student_organizations/clubsorganizations.html). No free food, but you can earn your extra credit (one whole point!) by commenting here on the organization that looks most interesting to you.

Reading Assignments, Exams, and Papers

For our September 17 class session, please read Units V, VI, and VII of Dragons. These chapters offer advice on how to approach college reading assignments, exams, and papers. If you were Polonius and trying to give advice to a son or daughter headed off to college, what bit of advice from these chapters would you be most likely to include? Why? [Remember: Polonius' advice usually sounds good, but it isn't necessarily all that helpful....though it might be!]
