Dear Students

Is it really so difficult to remember not to double-side formal papers after we talked about why yesterday?

Is it so difficult to remember not to italicize or use quotation marks for you own title?

4/15 first papers read and graded.

So far, some students have no sense of paragraphing. Some have no sense of making a point. Some have no sense of focus.

And that's why they're in Bardiac's Bootcamp.

  1. I don't understand why double spacing is such a weird concept. I had three students turn in the first two papers single spaced. What?? Why?? I even gave them a handout about formatting. Some people just willfully ignore teachers, I guess. It's depressing, and it's also one of the top ten reasons why I dread grading papers each and every time they come in.
