Documents now accessible!
After a little finagling, I was able to finally make the course documents and readings accessible on the blog. If you have any other problems using the blog, please let me know right away.
All of your blogs look fantastic! I've linked your pages under "Class Blogs," here, so if you're curious to see what your classmates are writing about, go take a look!
See you Thursday!

Course Documents
Many of you have reported that you can't download the PDFs in Course Documents for the course on this blog. Until I get it figured out, you can always access the course readings on the library's e-res.
Just go to their site (http://eres.uaf.edu/eres/), click on e-reservations and course pages, and then you can search by the course number or my name. The password is edharris.
