In addition you should have the following (useful for all your courses, not just this one!):
-         A good college-level dictionary
-         A good writing handbook (for reference information on grammar and style) such as Andrea Lunsford’s The Everyday Writer, Andrea Lunsford or Diana Hacker’s A Writer’s Reference
-        Access to a computer with internet capabilities, and a working and regularly checked CU email account – I will occasionally send emails to the class using the AMI Banner email function. These go to your CU email and I will expect that you check that email account regularly.
