Calendar Revisions

This post is to let you know that I've revised dates and settings for Writing Studio calendar events coming up later this semester.

1. For Porto-Portfolio updates, due the first of each month, with complete entries for the previous month, I've set the calendar to send you reminders one week prior to due dates. 
2. For upcoming essays, you should expect to receive similar reminders a few days before due dates for drafts and revisions.

Please check you[r] mail and the Writing Studio calendar regularly for details.
