Changes to Syllabus: (I've also changed these on the syllabus posting)
2/11: We will NOT discuss "Verbs" from Sin and Syntax.
2/16: INSTEAD we will be discussing "Verbs" today, 2/16, so have it read by then.
2/18: We will NOT discuss "Voice" from Sin and Syntax at all--scratch from syllabus.
2/23: We WILL discuss "Adverbs" from Sin and Syntax--add it to your syllabus under Discussion TBA.
In class we read "Coming Into Language" by Jimmy Santiago Baca. I'll leave extra copies in my box in 313.
