Welcome to Our "Official" Week 1 of Class!

Dear Class,

Good morning, wonderful brothers and sisters! You made it through the Introductory Week, and we're ready to launch into a typical work week in our class, wherein you will complete three lessons. The lessons are due on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday (by 11:58 pm, MT), so you will want to begin working on the lesson for this week right away. I am so pleased that most of you completed your Introductory Lesson work last week. (I have emailed the students who did not submit their work, reminding them that today is the last day to drop the class and get 100% tuition reimbursement).
 
Make sure to submit all your work on time for the rest of the semester. Remember, the late work policy for our class states that, "Late work is not accepted on the 38 lessons or the final assessment." You will submit three major papers during this class, and they will receive a 10% late penalty per day after the specified deadline. The late policy is fairly strict, but it will enable you to stay on track with the rest of the class.
 
Also, I want to remind you of the spiritual thread I post every week in the Q&A portion of my Notes from Sister Bowen. I spend my week thinking of what I can share in that spiritual thread, and it's fun to see what ends up on that page. Because building faith in Christ is one of my major objectives, it is wonderful to see your points made on that Q&A board. I'm strengthened by seeing what you contribute. Here's a link to the Q&A board this week. 
 
Finally, I have graded your submissions for the intro week and posted responses to all your bios and book recommendations. Please take a few minutes to see my feedback in the gradebook, and the feedback you received from me and your peers in discussion boards. You have an "Unread Posts" link beside our course on your I-Learn dashboard that lets you know when there are posts up that you haven't read yet.
 
I am with you every step of the way, I am here to help you, and I am praying for your success and happiness.
 
Love,
Sister Bowen
