you have chance. I talked with the teacher and she told that we only have turn in 1 outline for the whole
group so I have to put all the parts of our topics in one page outline. I was also wondering if we could
meet a day with the whole group but it is difficult because most of the group have different hours that are
available. Anyways I wanted to show the group the final outline before the deadline on September 22 to
check if the outlline is right and that everyone agrees with the information it will include. Abigail and Dulce
already e-mailed me their outline but on Wednesday that I talked with the teacher after class. I showed her the two outlines and she told that they where right but had to include it only 1 page.
