Homework: ebola article 1

The purpose of this post and the procedure that it refers to is A) to inform you of aspects of your homework, B) to ensure that no one reads the same article as anyone else.

Phase 4 homework assignment #1
1. Find an article about the ebola controversy to read.
2. Once you've found one, post in a single comment A) the title, B) the URL in the comments section of this post.
3. If someone else has already posted a comment in the comments section of this post about the same article that you were thinking about reading, then you need to find a new one.  DO NOT read the same article as someone else. Whoever posts first gets the article.
4. If you decide to use a newspaper or a magazine article, then post the title of the article, the name of the newspaper or magazine, and the publication date in the comments section of this post.  Again, DO NOT read the same article as someone else.
