For those who want a break from group work, here's a class for you. Although the amount of reading will more than make up for it. There is one presentation done by each student (20 minutes), typically two per week at the beginning of class. Also required is a final paper on a topic of your choice related to books, printing, and/or publishing due at the end of the course. Although there is not set page requirement, it can be quite difficult to stay under fifteen pages.
Dr. Neavill is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the topic.
