Hey, Jim,
On reflection, I'm thinking that today might not be the best day for the students to get library instruction. Attendance in my early section this morning was 'way off, and I think that is partly due to the students' natural desire to start Fall Break early and partly due to the fact that we had a power failure that affected the town of Livingston (not Vol State) this morning. I don't want you to drive all the way up here for nothing if my attendance in the afternoon is sparse as well (which I anticipate it will be.)
Would you be offended if we rescheduled for October 23? The last day of my FYEX course is October 30 (it's a ten-week section), and I'm trying to balance two disparate needs as the term draws to a close:
-
The students need to know how to use library resources for their final projects in their full-term classes, and
-
They need to get advising help for early registration for the spring, which begins on November 3.
If you can come on 10/23 and give them library instruction, then I will cover the advising issue on 10/30, and together, we will launch them into the fall endgame and then onto the spring term with a good boost.
Greg
P.S. This will also let me read the riot act to them about the absolute necessity of showing up in person on those days, which - it appears - will likely be necessary at that point.
