Reminders



First, thank you for sharing the learning experience with me this 1st semester. I cherish that struggle that we share trying to learn and explore new things.

Second, this is a reminder for those people who are enrolled in my phil history and consti class whose names do not appear in the class list: if at the end of the day the on line grades do not reflect your names, it only means that you have not yet settled the enrollment problem with the registrar( mr. aragon, de la rea, and others)

third, those who have failed to submit their exams will get 50%. I did not accept those papers that were just submitted at CASE office(ms. carlet).

fourth, the project for epal is only until thursday (sept 27, 2012).

fourth, you may email me at cris25rivero@yahoo.com for questions.

Again, dios mabalos.
