Geography 290: Geography of Popular Culture
Announcements

·         9/10/02-The bookstore has run out of texts and may not be able to get any restocked for several days.  Please attend class so announcements regarding changes in the reading schedule may be made.  Until additional texts arrive and the schedule can be reworked, I have place copies of the Gill and Carney (Branson) article on reserve the library front desk.  You may also access these articles electronically through the library’s e-reserve page (hopefully by Thursday 9/12/02).  The log-on and password is techeres (for Tech E-Reserve).  For e-reserve you may need to have Adobe Acrobat installed on your computer.  I’d do this on the 10th floor of Wiley.

·         NOTE *** In order to accommodate the lack of textbooks, the course schedule has been changed.  Note that the Goss and Graff readings have been moved up to Friday the 20th and Monday the 23rd.  Other changes follow.

·         I’ve taken materials for the next two articles that are in the course text to the library to be placed on reserve.  They include the Tweedie and Francaviglia articles.  They are the last two that I will have scanned for you.  Despite the failure of the bookstores/publisher to come through for us, I think it is now your responsibility to go find the text on-line.  I would check www.half.com  or www.amazon.com for good deals on books.  If nothing else, borrow a classmate’s book and copy the chapters you need.  Click below to go to the library reserve site.  Remember techeres is the logon and password for e reserves.

·        Apparently the Hall article did not make it into your reading packet, so don’t read it.  Instead read Shortridge’s article on the Place Defining Article.  The lecture notes and the quiz for this reading have been linked and posted in their normal locations on the web.  Remember to click refresh.
