For August 19

Monday audio. Very nice first day.

I will circulate a seating chart tomorrow; please try to keep the room reasonably balanced. We will spend the first few minutes tomorrow on the Syllabus.

Here, again, are the discussion questions

 We move to Relevance: Introduction to Relevance, with special attention to FRE 401-403. Become familiar with Mitchell and prep Questions #3-8 (that is as far as we will get). We will do the remaining questions and move on in class next Monday.
