Week 16.2: Final


Today is your final exam. In preparation for your final exam you will select an opinion column from this week's New York Times, Wall Street Journal, or Washington Post. You will be responsible for agreeing or disagreeing with the author's central premise (thesis) and stating your reason based on all of the articles you have read during the current event assignment.

In order to prepare for the exam, you will need to bring the following to the exam:
* A large blue book
* A blue or black pen
* A pencil or red pen
* The opinion piece you will be writing about (I will give a nonpassing grade if you do not provide the text)
* A single-sided page of notes
* A dictionary (optional)

  • The opinion piece you are writing about printed out (I will collect this)
  • One single, sided page of notes

Bring in the opinion piece that you would like to write about for your final exam.
