We are just a little bit behind where I was last time with this course,
mainly because of the storm day last week (and also we've been moving
just a bit more slowly than last time). In the syllabus, we have an
exam scheduled for this Thursday, Feb. 24, and we will continue with the
exam on that date.
Tuesday's lecture will be on money and banking in the U.S. before the Civil War. That will be the last chapter covered by the exam. The exam will cover chapters 1 through 12. The Civil War and slavery will be pushed to the 2nd third of the course. On Tuesday (or possibly before by e-mail), I will let you know the topic for one of the essay questions. From the syllabus, here is a description of the exams:
"Exams will consist of two essay questions, as well as a few short answer questions. For one of the essay questions you will at least know the general topic beforehand. Each essay question is worth 8 points, and the short answer part is with 4 points (20 points per exam). They are closed book/notes."
Short answer questions include matching, fill in the blank, and similar types of questions.
