Seminars will be interactive. Participants are expected to discuss assigned readings during class. Class participation counts for 40 percent of the final grade.

• 2 Reflection Papers: 60%
To stimulate discussion, participants will write two response papers related to two seminars of their choice over the course of the semester. A response paper can consist of any or all of critique, summary, elaboration, expressions of disagreement or puzzlement, suggestions for further inquiry, and so on – as long as it is directed to the readings for the seminar concerned.
