Univ 106 tidbits

I would like to clarify some things from e-mails that you’ve sent in about Univ 106. First, the folders we set up at the reference desk with your name on it are for our purposes only. You can, however, have your assignments back after you successfully finish the course (all 21 chapters and the final project) and get the magic "Pass" grade in our class register.

Second, make sure you "check in" at the reference desk. We would like to make sure you’re registered for the course and get credit for it, and also so we can explain the Univ 106 course website and how to use it, as well as answer any questions you may have about the course or the library.

Third, there’s some confusion about Assignment 9 where you’re asked to locate volume 4 of the Social Sciences Index on index row 101A. The Social Sciences Index is a drab, darkish, greenish brown, smallish multi-volume set like the picture here. Don’t confuse it with the taller and more colorful Social Sciences Citation Index, which is shelved unfortunately close to the Social Sciences Index.

Let me know if you have any questions. Happy research!
