New Syllabus Layout

We have been talking about how to make a syllabus more visually appealing and more interactive.  So we have been talking about just breaking sections into boxes, making an infographic, or even a fill-in-the-blank syllabus.  So we are still working but I wanted to give you a couple of previews of our rough drafts.

 Obviously, this is rough.  I am not loving my fonts, and I would like to draw boxes instead of using the ones available on the computer (because I am a crazy person).  And I am betting (based on past experiences) I will need to draw over my pie chart, legend and add some contrast that will copy when the grays don't copy ... 

Chonte's is much more polished than mine (as usual).  And I am really wanting to steal the idea of a black box with white text.  Considering we will not be printing or copying in color it really is the best way to add contrast to the page.

What do you think?  What would you add?  What did we miss?
