I collected your World War I Dossier Assignment at the beginning of class today. We started Topic B with a presentation/lecture that introduced you to some key themes in the second part of the course. I also gave you a worksheet with the key terms that you will be responsible for in Topic B. These key terms are due on Wednesday.
