We are finishing up Lost Names as a class on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. There will be a cumulative test on the book this Friday. It will be multiple choice and will include tangential historical information that was covered in class. If you have been reading all along, this will be quite easy.
Please note that your midterm is a week Tuesday (January 26)in the afternoon. I'll let you know the classroom.
