Recommend Read

I advise my students read an article on "Why Read Primary Sources" before the first day of class. It brings forth valuable questions and answers that can help in many of the readings assigned for the upcoming semester. We will discuss the issues brought forth in this article on the first day of class.

Welcome to Corc 1220

This site will be used for both EW6 and TR5 for the Prof. Massey's Corc1220 classes. The syllabus will be posted approximately a week before the course starts. It is recommended that the Source Reader (Core Curriculum Readings) be purchased before the first class. That will be the seminal textbook for the course.

There is no textbook for the course. All information for quizzes and examinations will be discussed through lectures and accompanying power point presentations, which will be posted on Blackboard before class. Thus, attendance is paramount for performing well in this course.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to e-mail me at jmassey@gc.cuny.edu. My response may be slow over the course of the next ten days, as I will be out of the country; however, I will do my best to leave a timely response.
