Presentations will be on this grading term. Students who didn’t present on their assigned date, which they knew about for 1 month, have only 1 more chance. They can present this Thursday, during class, but they must come to class prepared. Students will not have time in class to prepare. Presentations will be done on a first come, first serve basis.
