    Assignment—Active Reading

You need to be pro-active in developing your language skills and expanding your vocabulary. Set aside time every day for self-study, whether in the SLZ or at home, to read from newspapers and journals (such as the Economist, Fortune and the Wall Street Journal). You are expected to read articles (outside of class reading assignments) from business journals almost daily. For this assignment you are expected to print out one of these articles every week. Underline any vocabulary which you found difficult, and make a note of any comprehension questions you might have about the text.
