Thursday's class will concern a showing of the documentary on the Poletown case.

As I said in class, don't read too much into your performance on the mid-term exercise. The final will count for 300 points, and things could change a lot based upon your performance on the final. Be neither discouraged nor overconfident.

Also, please ignore the "quartile" rankings that the Law College will provide pursuant to a new faculty rule. I consider these quartiles arbitrary at this point in the course, because I simply don't have enough data to make any judgment about your relative ranking in the class. I divided the scores into quartiles only because I was required to do so.

I am pleased with the performance of the class as a whole. But there is always room for improvement

I hope you have a great Spring Semester 2014!
