Civil Procedure II Class Announcements |
REMINDER: If you have signed up to participate, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE for being PRO-ACTIVE in class. Participation is an active rather than a passive process. It is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to actively demonstrate that you have prepared for class discussions. The act of signing up to participate is not enough to earn class participation credit in this class; in other words, ACTUAL class participation is what counts, and sitting back waiting to be called upon is not to your advantage. |
