IMPORTANT NOTICE: If you did not submit to myaccess.com and/or turnitin.com any essays this semester (ID's 231474, 228781 and 234044) the only way you will get at least a "D" in the class is to write all five essays as prescribed on the essay assignment sheet. Not four. Not three. But ALL FIVE. You have already been given two weeks and class time every day.
If you did write and submit some essays, the only way you will get credit for them is to turn them in to BOTH myaccess.com AND turnitin.com as prescribed. This means that all the essays you already submitted to myaccess must now be submitted to turnitin.com. (You may not "make up" unfinished essays; this is only for essays already submitted to myaccess.com).
YOU WILL NOT BE GIVEN CREDIT FOR ANY ESSAY THAT IS NOT TURNED IN TO TURNITIN.COM.
