The following article was published this past Sunday in the New York Times:
http://www.nytimes.com/2012/10/21/opinion/sunday/kristof-cuddle-your-kid.html?_r=0
It is an interesting look at at issues pertinent to the current election- education and poverty as well as psychology and neuroscience. Anyone in my Psychology classes can use this article as a base for one of the writing assignments and follow the additional requirements (i.e. obtain one other source). This can count towards one of the ones you need to complete.
Just a reminder that as the semester moves on you need to be aware of the writing assignments. Please see the syllabus for the details and me if you have any questions!
