Making unsupported claims and sweeping generalizations bedevils public discourse, and it's not welcome in academic work.

 

For that reason, we need a burden to remind all of you about NOT making such mistakes.

 

I will award an actual brick, painted with instructions, that the recipient is to keep it in class until an unsupported claim or generalization, made verbally or in writing, gets qualified to my satisfaction with a blog post.

 

If the claim is never qualified, I will reduce the course grade by a +/-.
