Hi Everyone

I hope you thought that the Cultural diversity exam was easy!

As you have an important Physics exam tomorrow, I am going to give you independent learning time to complete the first draft of your assignment. So you do not have to come to class or to the library.

Dont forget that the essay must have at least four references and one inline citation.

I will be in the library if anyone needs any help.

Good Luck in your Physics exam

Frankie
