Review our AirTable class database and find at least three students who overlap with you in some way, either through their subject positions (i.e. their identities), via space (geographical connections), or through time (histories, etc.)
Note: You can be as literal or as creative with this notion of "overlap" as wish. For instance, if I found out that someone lived in a place that's on my personal bucket list, I'd count that as an overlap. :)
Open up a word processing document and share the name of the student you found who matched with you, and the categories in which you match.
Save this doc as YOURLASTNAME_2_STUDENTS
Post these three docs to your daily "assignments" channel on Slack BEFORE class begins:
