Jayson Lusk, the author of Food Police recently published an editorial about GM wheat at The New York Times. You might find it useful for your paper, especially the comments at the bottom.

Also, remember that for part of your paper you must take an issue not discussed in Food Police and speculate what Lusk would say about it. The new, upcoming series on Hulu+ by Chipotle might be a good one.

By the way, I didn't mean to schedule the exam right after the Superbowl. If someone had said something about it I would have changed the date.

Students who did not take the Exam on 2/3 because of the monster snowstorm must take it Tuesday, 2/4 (unless they made arrangements with Bailey before the blizzard). Bailey will be in his office from 8:30 until 5 PM. Stop by his office (no later than 4:00) when you can on 2/4 to take the exam. No need to make an appointment. If his door is shut just knock. If his door is open but he is not in his office, wait.

Before class on 2/5 print off all the practice questions at the beginning of Chapter 3 and all sections of Chapter 4. Bring these to class (or if you use the iPad, have them stored on an app that allows you to write on it, like Notability).
