Personal Journal 1 – 2015W
Due by 4:00 pm February 25th , 2015.
I do not accept assignments late, nor do I accept journals via email.
You are to respond honestly and completely to each of the questions in the journal. It is important that I will be able to understand your point of view on each and every question - so short 'Yes' or 'No' responses will not suffice. ( Place your response in the ‘Answer’ section indicated.) Give examples and details to support your responses.
Only disclose within the bounds of your personal comfort level, and rest assured that I am the only person who has access to your comments.
If you do not understand a question, contact me for clarification prior to the deadline.
I STRONGLY suggest that you do NOT leave this assignment to the last minute - as this journal exercise is a very important tool in your semester exploration of understanding human sexuality.
