This weekend has been a very overwhelming one for my family and me. We were given some very sudden and terrible news. My husband has been diagnosed with stage four cancer.
Obviously, I will not be making the trip to Hawaii.
After a lot of thought, I have decided that I will take this coming week off from teaching. I need a little time to digest this recent news that just came this morning. I have revised the course outline and posted it below. I have also made the changes on the syllabus posted on the blog in the Sept. 3 entry.
I apologize for any inconvenience this may create for you.
To recap, I will be taking THIS COMING WEEK off of teaching and will return on Monday, October 6th. You will note that I have changed the final due date for essay 1 to next Monday.
I plan to work through the rough drafts I received over the weekend and you should receive those back this evening or by the end of the day tomorrow, Monday.
Please make the changes to the syllabus immediately so there is no confusion.
If you have ANY questions or concerns, please email me. And again, I apologize for such late notice, but it just could not be helped. The news was shocking and unexpected.
