Chchchchanges

This week we'll continue to read, listen to, consider ideas which have evolved from Darwin's bombshell.  And, in the process, we'll also continue to look closely at the way a good argument works.  Because we're focusing on academic arguments, we will be especially wary of the logical fallacies that manipulative, non-academic arguments often resort to, simply for the sake of winning--your vote, your money,  your mind.  It's a short week, with the end of the quarter as its climax, so let's get all we can from every class.
