MESSAGE FOR M1 STUDENTS ONLY: NO CLASS ON DEC 02

12/01/11

Dear M1 students,

I sincerely apologise but I won't be able to have class tomorrow (Dec 02) as I was asked to attend a meeting for a disciplinary hearing ("conseil de discipline") at Villejuif at 2:30 pm and, most probably, I will not be able to make it at Immeuble France at 4 pm. Some students at my engineering school in Villejuif had misbehaved and an emergency meeting for a disciplinary hearing has been called for tomorrow afternoon by the head of the school.

As a result, I will catch up next Friday (Dec 09) and we will have class from 4 pm to 7pm.

The short vocab test next week (Dec 09) is maintained and will cover the following:
  • vocab chapters: 34/35/38/39/42
  • vocabulary from "Blood Diamonds" / "Press Freedom" / "WikiLeaks" (both audio reports)
  • False Friends (exercises 1/2/3/4)
 
The homework for tomorrow is postponed for next week too: 
  • Grammar unit 40 ex 1/3
  • Grammar unit 41 ex: 2/4
OPTIONAL WORK: in the meantime and if you can, do check and watch the following documentaries online:
  • "Wikisecrets" (PBS), click on "CC" so as to have the subtitles in English:

  • Read the interviews by Jullian Assange, Daniel Domscheit-Berg and Adrian Lamo:
  • Arte:
"WikiLeaks: la guerre contre le secret:":

Could you also inform your classmates whom you may be in touch with? Thanks in advance! 

I apologise again for the inconvenience and for this very short notice.

Best regards,

M
