Lecture, Week 15

I’m posting this week’s short lecture early to remind everyone about the due dates and the grade distribution in the class.

The deadline for all work in the class is by midnight on Tuesday, Dec. 21.

There is no Weekly Writing Assignment this week. Focus on your team projects and catching up on all individual projects.

Also, the Student Evaluation of Teaching survey deadline has been extended to Dec. 17, so please complete those if you haven’t already done so. For those who have completed it, thank you!

Good luck with finishing up the semester!

Weekly Writing Assignment, Week 14

For this week’s Weekly Writing Assignment, add a comment to this post in memo format that describes what you have contributed to your team’s collaborative project. Include any writing drafts and/or research that you have done. This is a way to maintain accountability for each team member’s contributions and to keep Prof. Ellis apprised of the work that your team members are doing to help bring the project together. Watch this week’s lecture for more details.

Announcement, Job and Experience Opportunities

There are some upcoming job seeking opportunities that I wanted to let you all know about. The Civil Service 101 presentation opens the doors about how to seek Civil Service jobs, and the CUNY Service Corp is a great opportunity to learn skills while gaining invaluable experience for your resume.

Are you interested in having a fulfilling career? Are curious about what City jobs are like for members of the LGBTQ+ community? 

The New York City government offers more than 2000+ job titles in 80+ agencies. Come see where your professional journey can take you at Civil Service 101 for LGBTQ+ Students and Allies, a virtual event on December 7th from 1:00-2:15 pm.   

The Department of Citywide Administrative Services will discuss Civil Service career options in NYC and how to apply for them. There will also be a representative from the Department of Health & Mental Hygiene who will discuss the LGBTQ+ Employee Resource Group, jobs currently available, and services that the department provides for the LGBTQ+ community.

Weekly Writing Assignment, Week 12

Due to the Thanksgiving Holiday, I am posting this week’s lecture and weekly writing assignment early.

After watching this week’s lecture and continuing your teamwork on the Analytical Research Report, each student should individually write a memo (TO, FROM, DATE, and SUBJECT: Research Project Update) that describes that individual’s work and responsibilities for researching and writing on the project and copy-and-paste any writing (including quotes that you might discuss) into your memo. Post your memo as a comment to this Weekly Writing Assignment post. Again, this is an individual assignment that demonstrates what each team member is responsible for working on their team’s project.
