(Week 17)
Update 1: The finals were graded last Friday. I won't receive them back until Tuesday afternoon, however. I'm also right in the middle of reading essays and papers. If you haven't yet received an email confirmation of your paper, look for one in the next couple days.Good luck with finals!
Update 2: I've looked over your finals and there were a surprising number of misreads of the prompt. Many of you confused a cover song, a song by one artist redone by another with permission (e.g. John Legend's cover of Adele's "Rolling in the Deep") with a bootleg, which is often an unauthorized redo or sample of a copyrighted song (e.g. many unauthorized YouTube mixes). And although there were a fair amount of 10s, there were also many 5s and 6s. These essays largely ignored structure and evidence, and instead relied heavily on summary. Finally, I hope to be finishing up the grades by tonight. So expect to get your final grades when I email you back to confirm I received your work.
