All Done Da Blogs...

Hey, WST320, congratulations on finishing up your blogging assignments. Now you need to choose a few for grade. Be sure to find those directions for the blog assignment, and choose your entries while considering the guidelines. Over and out... c-ya on the 30th.

Announcement: "Wikid Cool Feminist Buttons"

WST431 has made some "wikid cool feminist buttons" and will be distributing them in SUB on Wednesday, the 22nd, as an act of resistance. The buttons are of the "pro-consent" variety, and any donations received for them will be given to the Sexual Assault Centre on campus. (I don't know about you, but I could use a button or two... or some pants even!)

Feministeppin' CRITICS Finally Surface:

Dear WST320, -just received an email from Jordan. It appears that a feministeppin' critic, a great sentinel of proper education (who is also worried you'll be serving coffee for a career), has posted a response to Jordan's feministeppin' youtube account. The comment and private message are as follows:

COMMENT: "Girls, read about feminism a bit more, and you will realize the stupidity of Modern feminist thinking."

PRIVATE MESSAGE: "Grow up. If the school didn't waste time on idiot things like Feministeppin you would have a better chance of succeeding in the workplace because you would of spent your term preparing for it. By the way, liberal arts colleges are a fast track to serving coffee. Empowering is about education, not feel good exercises that waste time, resources... and eh, everything else put into them. Thats all. Anyway, looking forward to a reply..."

(Note: I don't know about the rest of you 320ers, but I'm laughing that feministeppin' has become, it appears, rather threatening...:-)

Ziners Unite Tonight

-Just a note to send good vibes your way during the zine production phase of 320. I sincerely hope you all get loads of work done tonight and that you have a fun time doing so. Be sure to check your email accounts because I have given you instructions to email me or to phone me tonight if you have any questions. Forgive me, but I didn't want my home phone number posted on my blog. nope. Well, I look forward to your zines and your presentations on the 16th. Zine on! -but don't forget to blog on as well. (damn, this course expects a lot outta ya.)

Alteration to WST320 Syllabus:

Dear WST320 Folk, I've just been informed that I will be flying to Victoria on the 23rd of November on professional business. Therefore, I have had to consider alterations to your syllabus since your blog presentations are due that same evening. Obviously, there will be no class on the 23rd of November. Your blog presentations and hard-copy blogs, therefore, will be due on the 30th of November. Unfortunately, you will have to pick up these graded assignments on a date (to be determined) in the main office of Women's Studies since the class I had set aside for returning your work and conferencing has had to be altered.
