Last thoughts Give project, process paper, & journal to advisor in an organized & self contained manner. MAKE SURE YOUR NAME IS ON EVERYTHING. EXAMPLES: In a gift bag/brown bag with everything inside. Check with your supervisor if size of project prevents this. NO PLASTIC BAGS!!! ( they break, are sloppy, & difficult for us to organize) DON’T WALK IN ON THE DAY IT’S DUE & THROW ALL YOUR STUFF ON YOUR SUPERVISOR’S DESK

Final thoughts…. Do not bug your supervisor about the grade. your final grade will be revealed AFTER everything is RECORDED!!!!!!!!! Personal Project is worth 50 points in this class. Due March 2 nd !!!
