Upcoming assignments -- Dec. 11th and 15th

1. Come up with a working thesis for your Hamlet essay and bring it, typed, to Thursday's class.

2. Be prepared to perform your memorized soliloquy Thursday or the following Monday. The brave shall be rewarded.

3. Be prepared for an objective test on Hamlet Monday.

4. Write your essay. Caveat: it is technically due the day before the holiday begins. You may, however, turn it in the first day of class after the holiday if you simply cannot complete a polished, articulate essay before then, and I will not zing your grade for doing so.
