Advice

	 Prepare for and come to every class.  The most common reason for failure
 in this class is the student does not start on researching and studying their
 topic from the beginning.  Without exams it is easy to procrastinate.  The draft
 handed in before Thanksgiving must be well prepared so Dr. Almon can tell you
 how to revise it for an "A".  Dr. Almon will not rewrite your paper he will just
 make suggestions.  You must provide a good foundation for these suggestions.
