Sign-up List for Web sites on American poets
See me to sign up for one of the poets on the list below.
Begin your research right away to give yourself enough time to build a strong
Web site. In particular, try to find one of the poet's original collections
as soon as possible. You may have to use interlibrary loan. Your finished
site, loaded on a diskette, is due in class on a date you will arrange with
me. At any time before this deadline, you may meet me to review a draft
of your site or turn in your final draft.
