Mardi Gras is February 24.
I distributed the costume grading checklist in class.
No street clothes, no athletic uniforms. No credit if you break these rules!
Dress code enforced.
25 project points.
If you plan to do the extra-credit Mardi Gras projects see me by Friday of this week for more information.
