This semester has gone so fast, and while it’s hard to believe, it’s almost over! We’ve got one last in person class on Tuesday, which will be a time for us to go over the highlights of what we’ve learned about in comparative politics, raise any lingering questions, and discuss the cases you’ve been following all semester. All are welcome to this class, so please make it a priority to attend and to complete your Final Slide before class starts (it’s an easy way to earn 5 points, and it will function as a collaborative study guide for the final exam, if everyone does their one slide).

Speaking of points, some of us are very close to being done with this class by having earned enough points for an A+, so congratulations! Many of us are not there yet (or not even close), and that’s okay- there is still time- I’m happy to accept your work as soon as it’s ready, and the last date to submit work is December 13, which means you still have time to learn and earn points. If I were in the position of having very few points right now and needing to get to 73 for a C, I would start with:

• completing the Final Slide and attending our final class.
• Then I’d work on the Meme, Photo Essay, Mini Fieldwork, Film Review, and 10 Minute Class (instructions for all of these are on the list of assignments), posting the work to our class blog as I completed it.
• Finally, I would make sure to take the Final Exam (which will be open-book, untimed, and you can take it as many times as you like from December 11-13- just make sure to take it during that time!).

I know it hasn’t been an easy semester for a lot of us, and I’m here to help you finish strong, so email me with any questions.
