Hey guys,

   To our dismay, we have no choice but to cancel sessions for this week. We all appologize for the inconvinience, but we are as disappointed as you are. By next week you will have all have the information that you guys need for your sessions. Again, we are very sorry for this inconvinience, but it was completely out of our hands. If you have any other questions, please let us know.

The PLTL Crew

Students, unfortunately due to the availability in Space and Scheduling at Florida International University, PLTL is being cancelled for this week. We will post more information as it is made available to us.

Please note that this absence will count as an extra EXCUSED absence and will not hurt your grade.

Again, we apologize for the inconvenience we know this has caused but please remember that we are very commited to you, the student and to this program. We will be meeting with university officials to solve this situation as soon as possible.

Attention Leaders AND Students,

    The Space and Scheduling Department (the department that assigns rooms) at FIU has told us that they will be assigning the rooms for PLTL only 30 minutes before each session. Please check your e-mails, or go onto your PLTL class page 30 min or less, before your session, and you will see a room number. If you have any different questions, please contact us.

Thank you for your patience,

   The PLTL Crew

Students, we are in the process of adding more Saturday sessions for both Biology 1 (1010) and Biology 2 (1011). We will send a message when these are ready.

Students,

   The PLTL weeks run from Wednesday to Tuesday. That means that sessions will begin on Wednesday of this week; therefore, if your session is on Monday or Tuesday, then you do not have a PLTL session until next week (week of Monday, September 6). However, being that Monday, September 6 is Labor day, any student with a Monday session will have an assignment on their PLTL class page (for next week only).

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or any of the PLTL crew members.
