Welcome to our 2009-2010 Amstud Wiki!

 

The American Dream is that dream of a land in which life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone,

with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement.

~ James Truslow Adams 

Or is it?

 

 

DIRECTIONS on USING THIS WEBSITE:

 

It is your job to download all material on the website.  We will indicate items which you MUST PRINT and bring to class.  If we have not indicated the need to print, then feel free to save on paper.  It is expected that you print at home or a place in the school where students can access printers/copiers.  YOU MAY NOT PRINT TO OFFICE PRINTERS!!!!  SO PLAN AHEAD!  You will lose participation and homework points if you do not come to class with the appropriate materials. It is a good habit to check the wiki daily...as we will not always announce changes!
