---+++ Assignments
   * Reactions to current events/publications. A reaction to an article includes enough to convince me that you have read the entire article and not just the headline or first paragraph. It should include s summary of what was said and your reaction. Be sure to give a complete reference to the item. These should be turned in as a hard copy in class within one week (or before the next edition is published, whichever is longer) of the item being published. You may pick when. Each one does have a deadline. These must be unique to this course.

      * Write a reaction to one article in XRDS related to programming. This needs to be completed before the final.
