This is a really fun class and you'll definitely improve your writing skills. Your entire grade is based on your three portfolios, each counting as equal weight. The first paper is the hardest to write, but by the end of the semester you'll enjoy the writing projects. Definitely try to put a lot of effort into the daily writing assignments because they help you in the long run (you won't have to reread the readings when writing your paper). Professor Sullivan is a fun and engaging professor.
