With my friend Tyler, my mom, and my brother at the College Football National Championship Game in Texas, on Monday!
Hi everyone,
It was great to be back teaching today, after missing the first two days of the week to see Oregon play! Here's what happened in class:

Soundtrack: "Love Loss Hope Repeat" by Carbon Leaf. Selected for today because of Oregon losing on Monday. It was a wonderful season, for sure! I was really happy to get to witness so much of it. I look forward to many more years of attending Oregon football games, regardless of the outcome. Lyrics here.
AGENDA 1/14/15:
News Brief – Alfredo
State/Local Readings
Computer Lab S213
Homework: Read the blog. Turn in your citizenship paper if you did not already! State/Local paper due on finals day. Bring your materials to study for the final next class! Next news brief: Mathew
News Brief: Alfredo had the news brief today and talked about the continuing story with terrorism in France. Mathew asked to do the next news brief.
State/Local Readings: This is the last reading/overview of the class! We will go over it together on Friday.There are copies of this handout (it is somewhat lengthy, with questions on top) in class, on the desk.
The final assignment for the class is this project, which is a two page paper, with at least MLA citations, about a local issue that you care about. It will be due in class on finals day, and you will probably be asked to give a short (like a minute or two). Here's the handout:
Please be reading through and answering the questions on the State/Local government packet, so we can go through it together on our last class before finals, on Friday
See you on Friday! We will review, play Jeopardy, and I will hand out a Study Guide for finals.

Hey Mr. Fritz, can I put you in as a source for my citizenship paper? I used your ideas on the real world example parts that you gave me in class. I could just cite it as a personal interview.
