Hi everyone!

Welcome to the 2022 UO’s First-Year College Connections course, My Visual Story: Comics and Personal Storytelling.

We are excited about working with you all this fall term!   We are looking forward to  exploring ways in which our College Connections course connects ENG 280: Introduction to Comic Studies and your other college course work at the UO, and how these courses will also help introduce you to the rich academic offerings the UO has to offer.

For our College Connections course we will be meeting Tuesdays, 2:00pm-3:20pm (check your DuckWeb account for the most up to date room location).

And we do have a Canvas site open for this course so you can easily find a link to this site since all of your information will be posted here on this blog.   We use this blog site so we can build on the information from previous years to make this a more robust educational experience that connects you what previous cohorts have done, just like you!

See these sections of this site:

• 2022 Resources for the syllabus, assignment documents, and other resource links.
• 2022 Class Schedule with information about our weekly schedule.
• Your instructors! Learn more about Robert and Mazzy here!
• Class Expectations, our basic expectations for what we will offer you as students of this FIG and what we expect from you.
• Class Introduction for information about the three courses associated with this FIG.

Please check back to this site for more updates as the terms progresses!

Best,

Robert and Mazzy!

Back to school (at college with less direct parent help, but that is what the FIG is for!)
