Oh, contact info! Seriously, this is why I need other people to look at things because otherwise I will miss something obvious. Thank you!
It's interesting that you find the content in the syllabus overwhelming. I've gotten acclimated to graduate English classes, where this is more or less what the syllabi look like: a page or two of discussion on the general thrust of the class, and then a paragraph or two about each expected class thereafter, with some addenda for additional reading and suggested paper topics. However, I'm teaching an optional seminar for MIT students, not a graduate lit class. :) Maybe I should take that information and make it a separate handout and link to it from the syllabus? That way people who want to read it before the class can, but the syllabus itself isn't as intimidating?
