** Small Groups: Beginning March 4 the class will break out into smaller groups of 2 to 4 students whose research topics are complimentary. I will meet with each group at least once each week and most often twice, either for short periods during the scheduled class time – or at another day and time that is convenient for the group. In these smaller groups there will also be further appropriate reading assigned when and where I think it would be a benefit.
