Directions:  Students have been assigned to present two studies in this course.  Some students have gotten both of their ranked choices and others have only gotten one of their ranked choices.  For those who only received one of their choices, I have assigned a second article to you.  If you are unhappy with the second assigned article, you can still elect to switch to one of the unassigned articles.  See me within the next week (by 9/5/00) if you desire to make a change.
