My Project

My Dual Credit English Composition students need a a few more copies of Their Eyes Were Watching God and The Bluest Eye so that we have enough copies for each student. My students who select Comp 2 are intelligent and hardworking, and I want to expose them to the brilliance of both Toni Morrison Zora Neale Hurston in our course.

I have so many more students this semester than I'm used to having in my Comp 2 class, which is an awesome problem to have, but now I need enough copies of these books for everyone; please help me get my students enough copies of these books which will allow us to diversify our Comp 2 class curriculum!

I had to shorten the timeline of this project drastically because of how soon I need them in my class! Thank you so much for your support.
