Interview Pairings

Tentative Daily Schedule
**Any adjustments to the schedule will be announced in class and students are responsible for the changes. All reading should be done prior to the class date where it is mentioned. You are responsible for all material in your textbook. The exams come from a testbank that is comprised of concepts found in the book. If you do not read the book, do not study from the book, or use lecture as the only guide for the exams, your chances of doing well are lessened. You will be tested over the information and your knowledge should be evident in both your written and spoken works. If you have any questions about material that is not covered specifically in classroom discussion, please feel free to bring such questions up in class. Please read all chapters prior to the day class meets:
