This week we will work in class on the essay for your Social Justice projects; out of class you will need to be working on the project components. Please do not forget about the above-and-beyond grading. To exceed an 80%, you must submit a project that includes exceptional depth of thought, critical thinking, and creativity, a project that goes beyond the basic criteria for the assignment in some substantial ways.
