Oral Presentation Dates

Hi. I've received all but one paper proposal, and they're all looking pretty good, so far. I'll be giving you more feedback on your theses & arguments, after your presentations. You will also all be filling out little peer review slips for your classmates, on which you'll be asked to identify the presenter's thesis. Bear in mind that your own thesis should be clear & explicit enough to identify in this way.

Meanwhile, I'm writing to assign presentation dates. I initially thought that I'd find some brilliant connections between each of your paper topics and organize you into thematic groups, but there isn't enough overlap for that. (The good thing is that this means there will be a nice, interesting, diverse range of topics presented.) So you will just be sorted alphabetically by first name. Please look for your name, below, to determine your presentation date.
