Letter of Introduction

The first short essay requirement: by the start of lecture on January 23, please write a 250-word essay—a "letter of introduction" to your GSI. Include your name, and outline:

the reasons why you are choosing to spend 3% of your scarce college curriculum time taking this course this year,

what you hope to learn from this course,

what you hope to do in the future as a result of this course, and

anything else about yourself that you would like to share with your GSI.

Please include or embed a photo of yourself, as this will help your GSI learn your name.
