Handouts
English 102
This page will serve as a contents page to various "handouts" (a term I use for lack of a better term) relevant to this class. On some occasions, the documents here will be duplicates of paper copies handed out in class. On most occasions, however, the documents listed here will be posted only here and/or via E-mail.
