Due Monday: 327-335
Due Tuesday 11/17: 335-342 (stop at physiology of obesity) and print advertisement (one that you find striking - this is worth 10 points)
Due Wednesday 11/18: 342-348
Due Friday 11/20: 348-54
Due Monday 11/23: 354-62 - and bizarre food bazaar! --> Bring an unusual food to class--enough for at least half the class to each try a small amount--along with an appropriate serving utensil (I will provide paper plates, napkins and plastic flatware). Ideally, don't bring anything that needs to be heated or refrigerated. Please write up a short (one paragraph) explanation of your item - what it is and why you chose it. (In other words, it should have some meaning to you and not be indiscriminately plucked off a supermarket shelf. Choose wisely!). Make at least one reference to a term or concept from the reading in your write-up. Please type. This is worth 20 total points for term 2.
Due Tuesday 11/22: 366-372 (including the section on lie detection)
Due Monday 11/30: 372-89 (try to divide this up - it compensates for not having anything due Wed. before Thanksgiving)
Due Tuesday 12/1: 389-96
Due Wednesday 12/2: 397-406
Unit 8 test is Friday 12/4
