EWRT1A-63: April 28th reading and new MLA rules

A change to the syllabus: for Tuesday, April 28th, I'd like you to read "Gender Bias in Education" by Amanda Chapman. This essay will act as a transition from our section on education to our section on gender. We are entering some highly charged territory. Be prepared.

Also, the Owl at Purdue has a page devoted to the 2009 MLA citation rules. The new rules only affect how you compose your works cited entries. Entries from books and other print sources are done the way the Longman describes, except that you add "Print" to the end of your works cited entry. The biggest changes seem to be for sources from the internet. See the page for the new guidelines and some examples.
