Thursday- In class today we will achieve two goals-
The first will be the assigning of your Bio-Board and the second will be a
lecture on Progressive leaders.
If for some reason you are not in
class today, you can still hear the short lecture on leaders from the Progressive
movement and answer the questions
. If you are listening to the lecture on CD, the link is wrong. To access the
lecture open up the lectures folder on the CD. Then open the folder labeled prole. Then open the folder that's labeled synccd. Finally, click on the index.htm icon and the
lecture will start. You can of course just listen to it now on-line.
