Self Study Drafts

And so it goes that our working papers and the feedback we received from them have become a first draft to the Kenyon Self Study, 2010. Here you will find drafts of each chapter as they become available. We are again asking for your feedback in order to prepare the final draft. You may download these chapters in PDF and send us your feedback in writing (Campus Mail c/o Michelle Foster, Olin 313). Or you may view these chapters by topics in Comment Press by clicking on the links below. (To make a comment in Comment Press, simply click on the speech bubble to the right of each paragraph to make your comments. (Comments are moderated, so they will not show up as you type them, but will be visible when the coordinator releases them).
