October 1 – Food and Culture

Hello everyone, I hope your week is going well. I realize the STM strike continues to affect many of you. Last week I offered make-up assignments for those who could not attend class, and I will continue to provide accommodations as needed. That said, I am concerned about students who have missed class last week and who will miss again this week. With an assignment due next week, please keep in mind that I can only meet during office hours, so plan accordingly to stay on track.

Also, with 180 students this semester and accommodations extended to all, I am receiving a high volume of emails. I believe I have responded to all questions, but I have not replied to messages where students only submitted their notes.

Here is the plan for this week. 

1 – Introduction and check-in

2 –Food and Culture

3 – Discuss Readings (Please come prepared to discuss at least two chapters from the assigned readings covered so far this semester).

4 – Questions, concerns, comments?
