  • Thursday! We are going to have visitors this afternoon from 12:45 – 1:30 (no article, super late mask break, or we skip it?). Start with the visitor info form first. Students working with visitors:
    • gSample – JJ Pratt
    • eMurr – First backup

      • Form
      • Show off 3 favorite / best projects
      • Teach them something, how to DO something, some hands on practice
      • Let them see you working on current projects (Pin / Storyboard / Reef)
  • Please remember that all Semester 1 work needs to be turned in by Friday the 14th. When you return to class the next day we only think about Semester 2 / 3rd Quarter – we can’t change prior grades.
