Hello Scholarly Gents!

I will miss seeing you all this week, but please know that you are not forgotten. Here are this week's assignments:

- blog on the 2 topics below Dilemma facing Greeks and Community Service
- blogersate about Jon's additional blog
- blogersate on one and others' blogs
- be sure to read the assignments from the week of the Icepocalypse (chapter 12 from Komives and two additional articles)

For the following week, you will want to check out Joel's blog to find out what your assignments are. Thanks and I'll see you all on March 1!

Icepocalypse!

Hello there! I hope you all are safe and warm on this blustery frozen day. Joel and I are bummed that we didn't get to see you this week for class, but with the University closing, we wanted you all to stay safe and warm.

So, next week, we'll be getting creative with the blogabus. We want to touch on the material from this week and you all should have already completed for class yesterday even though it was canceled. In addition to this week's material, you will also want to do the following:

- read chapter 12 from Komives
- review this article on the challenges facing Greek life and this article about the questionable values of the fraternity
- Blog for week 6 (see below)
- participate in Blogersations!!!
- be ready for your group project (see blogabus for assignment description & last week's assignments for groups)

Thanks guys. Sorry that we had to cancel class this week. Be safe and stay warm. See you next week!
