The final deadline for getting your winter quarter coursework submitted to me is Wednesday, March 14 at 8:00 am.  It must be submitted to my email address: dstorck@scad.edu.  All attachments should be in Microsoft Word or PDF file formats.

If you are submitting assignments that were previously due by another date, I will still accept them, but because they are late, they will not receive full credit.  Anything submitted after the final deadline (Wednesday, March 14 at 8:00 am) will not be accepted and will not receive any credit.
