Welcome!
Iām Dr. MacDougall, your professor for Philosophy of Law (PHIL 3211). There are two things I want you to know before our first meeting on January 29.
1. Most of our written interactions, class updates and materials, are available on our OpenLab site. Please join our OpenLab section as soon as possible. You will be required to join in order to participate in online discussions. You can also see theĀ scheduleĀ andĀ assignmentsĀ there.
2. This class is an Open Educational Resource (OER) course. That means there is no textbook, and all readings are freely available online. This saves you money and means you can store all our readings on your hard drive, indefinitely! You can find links to class readings on theĀ scheduleĀ page.
Let me know if you have any questions. Iām looking forward to meeting you.
Dr. MacDougall
