Welcome Back to School!

Cabrillo, CAHM 20: All classes begin on Mon, August 27th. Students enrolled in the online section must attend the mandatory orientation/first class meeting on 8/27 from 7-9 pm in room 454. Any student who cannot attend the orientation on 8/27 will need to email between 8/24 and 8/27 (before 5 pm) to prevent being dropped from the class and to make alternate arrangements. See Fall schedule for more information. All online students should log into class, via Blackboard, on August 27th. In addition, please make sure that your email address is up-to-date with the college as I will email all students on my class roster before August 24th.
Face-to-face students (MW mornings) need to attend class on August 27th to confirm class participation or will be dropped from the class to allow another student to add. Class meets in room 426. The syllabus will be posted in Blackboard so you may download it from there, before class, if you would like a hard copy.
